Event Description

“A piece of tremendous humor, humanity, and smartness” Newcity

Lucky Plush returns to the Dance Center with its signature blend of nuanced dialogue, complex choreography and off-the-cuff improvisation. SuperStrip follows a group of washed-up superheroes attempting to reinvent themselves by starting a nonprofit think tank for do-gooders. Complex training missions and specialized movement techniques bring structure to their collective, but the unlikely supers are unable to find a shared mission and brand. In the struggle to achieve consensus, they discover that real-world problems are far more complex than singular forces of evil, and having power is part of the problem.
