Event

In Naked Knotted Neurons, a group of protesters, some injured, some choking on tear gas, escape violent confrontation with police and other forces by staggering into a safe house they find in the midst of chaos. Strangers to one another, they soon discover they are from different worlds: all were involved in protests, but in different places and times. A trio of dieties, Fate, Chance and Destiny, have gathered them together to charge them with a task: to create a new Hero to solve the world’s most intractable, knotted problems. How to get this message across? Puppets, riddles, and audience participation reveal the secrets the protesters need to fulfill this task.

Following their run at the International Fringe Festival in Edinburgh, Scotland, the Penn Theatre Ensemble presents the company-devised piece Naked Knotted Neurons. Performances on Friday and Saturday, September  4th and 5th at 7pm, Montgomery Theatre, Annenberg Center for Performing Arts.
