THE DREAMER AND THE ACROBAT Begins 2/21 as Part of FRIGID Festival

Mallory is an agoraphobic baker who never leaves her shop, eager to experience the world but terrified to try. The circus comes to town with Mallory's best childhood friend - the acrobat Gitano - with whom she's always been secretly in love. To be with him, she must overcome her fears and join the outside world before the circus leaves.
