redcat

A puppet show starring a faceless, white snowsuit; avant garde Chinese theater; a modern dance piece set inside a homemade spaceship in the Mississippi Delta; electronic concerts merging cello, architecture and vocal improvisation; you must be at REDCAT, the Roy and Edna Disney/CalArts Theater. REDCAT mixes performances from across the theatrical/musical spectrum with gallery exhibits that take the cutting edge and then sharpen it to a gleaming, adventurous point. Headquartered at the Disney Concert Hall, REDCAT is always at the experimental vanguard of Los Angeles downtown theaters.
