The Breath Project Festival

The Breath Project's Virtual Fall Festival features a selection of the eight-minute-and-46-second theatrical works, all created by BIPOC artists, that exist on TBP Archive. The artists who submitted pieces to this living time capsule have striven to capture something of this moment in history. Each performance of the Festival will feature different pieces from the Archive, as well as live commentary by TBP curators, and a Q&A with the artists, immediately following the performance. And representing Austin within this fierce and many-peopled anthology of works? Those unstoppable Rude Mechs. Note: While the Festival is free, every dollar that you donate to this event will be given directly to the contributing artists and volunteer curators.

Oct. 24-25. Free.

Thursdays-Sundays. Through Nov. 8. $70 for a two-person pod.
