More on our theme - "Human Alchemy":

The Human Body is a magical vessel – where has it taken you? Where do you want to go? The Human Body is endlessly diverse – there are no two alike. How do you connect with others? What does it mean to be able to transform, to evolve, to become? 

The Off-Kilter Cabaret is Off-Leash Area's ongoing community program designed to highlight and support artists with disabilities in the creation of original performance work. Conceived in 2022, Off-Kilter is a performance vessel that specifically gives voice to persons with disabilities in our local Twin Cities performing arts community. Want to read more about Off-Kilter?
