"12 Minutes Max," Base: Experimental Arts Space, Georgetown (Monday Only)

12 Minutes Max is a performance lab for new and experimental works, first developed by On the Boards in 1979, and adopted by Base in 2017. In this series, artists present 12 minutes of material, while audiences get an opportunity to be the first to see works-in-progress, some of which will go on to become full-length pieces. 12 Minutes Max has inspired similar programs in Vancouver, B.C., Bellingham, Salt Lake City, Chicago, and Houston. Works presented range from performance art to dance, from experimental theater to sound art, from spoken word to comedy, and more.

"Dream, Carl, Dream!" Dacha Theatre, 12th Ave Arts, Capitol Hill

It's five minutes 'till Sleepytime and the latest set of rewrites are even worse than the last. The Director of Dreaming is considering pulling the plug and putting up another rerun of "Teeth Fall Out (School Assembly Version)" but the truth is everyone knows that the stakes are too high for that.

In their waking life, Carl seems to be holding it together, but in the depths of their subconscious, Carl knows they could be – want be – so much more. In fact, Carl’s dreams might just be the only connection they still have to their deepest self.

That's where you come in. In this immersive, interactive piece, you will assist the beleaguered neurons of the Dream Department in programming each night's dreams. Work alongside your mental colleagues during the day, and then sit back, relax, and watch the show once the dreams start to play. Plumb the depths of this unknown psyche deep enough and you may even find a way to show Carl what they truly need.

Pay What You Choose option available online starting at $0 for all performances.  Click here for tickets or more info.
