SYNOPSIS: Q imports earth from their homeland to grow peculiar plants in a community garden, cultivating a little plot of home in this new land. Jon, the community garden manager, doesn't trust this mysterious immigrant or their foreign dirt. But much to his terror, Jon's eleven-year-old daughter is intractably drawn to the enigmatic Q and their unearthly garden. A creative response to Bram Stoker’s Dracula, FIFTY BOXES OF EARTH asks us to consider the heavy costs of immigration and leaving a home to put down new roots.

We are looking for artists who can move with grounded movement vocabulary, non-mainstream aesthetics, improv, and rhythm.

SEEKING

Nature Ensemble - Any race, any gender. An ensemble of 5 dancers and/or puppeteers from non-Western movement traditions work together to make the plants grow and the weather shift. They represent nature, the environment, locality, intentions, roots, land, wind, rain. Femme artists and queer, non-binary, and trans performers are encouraged to audition.
