SUMMARY:Tiny Luxuries created by Heather Tatreau
DESCRIPTION:Tiny Luxuries is an experimental dance-theater piece created for The Process Series by Heather Tatreau with support from the UNC College of Arts and Sciences\, Carolina Performing Arts\, and a grant from The Orange County Arts Commission. This original production is based upon Clarice Lispector’s 1977 novella\, The Hour of the Star. Through the rich combination of text and movement\, a visceral study of relationships and the quest for happiness emerge. An eccentric cast of characters construct the identity of Macabéa\, a poor typist from the slums who longs to be pretty. Will she find her voice to contribute to her own existence before her time runs out? What if happiness is not as neat and pretty as we think? \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Robin Frohardt's Plastic Bag Store
DESCRIPTION:This is no ordinary store: All of the products that line the shelves are just plastic bags. There are bottles of bags\, cans of bags\, boxes of bags\, and\, of course\, bags of bags\, each product an original design\, made from discarded plastic stuffed inside other discarded plastic\, creating an endless cacophony of packaging.\n \nAt night this store comes to life with live performers\, dynamic sets\, hidden worlds and inventive puppetry to tell a darkly comedic\, sometimes tender story that explores how the plastic refuse we are leaving behind might be misinterpreted by future generations. Plastic Bag Store is a tragicomic ode to the foreverness of plastic.\n \nThe Plastic Bag Store installation will be free and open to the public from September 14-23 (closed on September 17). \n\n\n	Related
