Utopic Monster Theory is a polydesirous bricolage of text-movement exploring 21st century cultural work. The performance defines and attempts to understand why artists’ creative labor is undervalued. The Price Point of Living illuminates stories of everyday citizens struggling to find a sense of direction, purpose, and value in the wake of an uncertain labor market. At its core, the work explores the abstract question “What is the value of living?”
Sponsored by Insight Arts, Nights of Insight cultural series IN>TIME 13 Performance Festival
