Impossible CITIES:

Five theater artists premiere original performances depicting real-life Utopian visionaries (including Mormon founder Joseph Smith, architect and Arcosanti community creator Paolo Soleri, and the Amana Society of Iowa) through performance art, physical theater, monologue and cooking demonstration. A vegetable puppet show, a memoir and a feverish dance all figure into a series of meditative and comical glimpses of perfect worlds as seen through the eyes of dreamers, schemers and mystics. The diversity of approaches suggests the myriad ways humans have crafted a vision of a perfect world. These colorful stories illuminate the human capacity to dream as well as the real-world consequences of attempting Utopia.
