STUFF

A 100 Watt Production, Featuring The Youth Ensemble

Directed by Kristina Watt Villegas

Show art by Sophie Dean

STUFF is about…our stuff. It’s about our attachment to material possessions, consumption, and confusing need with greed. Meanwhile, this living thing called planet Earth pays the price. But you know all this. So. Imagine a time in the future (a future that could be now) in which teens all over the world (TTF’s, Teenage Task Forces) unite with one goal: to eliminate stuff. 

And one more more thing: STUFF is about being human: the “I am because I have”, power imbalances, and the challenge of letting go.

Ernest and Ernestine are in puppy love.
