Coming from PTF June 4-6, Los Regalos / The Gifts by Compañia de Teatro Físico (Peru) is simply breathtaking: https://theaterwit.org/tickets/productions/576/performances

A father and his two sons live in a house. The most routine tasks, such as preparing breakfast, bathing, or housework turn into real adventures when tackled by three inexperienced men and their fear of not knowing what they are doing. The journey that the elder brother needs to make in order to leave home, and the fear of saying goodbye to the ones we love, will be the starting point of our story. Los Regalos / The Gifts will be performed at The Dance Center at Columbia College.

Padre y sus dos hijos hombres viven en una casa. Las labores más cotidianas se vuelven verdaderas aventuras cuando preparar el desayuno, comprar ropa nueva o hacer las tareas son afrontadas por un papá sin experiencia. Cuando hermano mayor debe realizar un largo viaje, tanto padre como hermano menor deberán aprender a comunicarse a pesar de no tener una relación muy cercana. Los Regalos / The Gifts se presentará en The Dance Center de Columbia College.

Join us for Made in Chicago! Physical Theatre Festival presents two local artists or companies up to 40 minutes each to showcase new work developed from pieces previously presented at Scratch Night.

This year's lineup:
MATADORA (W.I.P) is a devised choreographic work by INSÉKTA that begins with the question: what does rage look like in the body? The work traces the emergence and mutation of suppressed Latiné rage — a force of dignity, agency, and self-possession.
WHAT’S THE NEW F-WORD YOU CREATED?
Let’s just say: LegLand’s The New F-Word is a show about fog. The New F-Word is a fusion of comedic discomfort & exaggerated theatrical moodiness to ask our audience “What’s really so cool about sitting in a smokey room anyway?”

Performances of MATADORA (W.I.P) + The New F Word will be at Theater Wit June 2!
