Upcoming Performances

Coming soon:

CIRCLE THE WAGONS Feb 14 - Mar 3

The Exchange Artists invite you to Circle the Wagons, a new voyeuristic theatrical experience in 8 parts, running February 14th – March 3rd, Friday through Monday evenings at 8pm. The performance will take place in the parking lot of Hyde Park Christian Church with audience getting in and out of 8 vehicles to witness a five minute play in each car. Hyde Park Christian Church is located at 610 E 45th Street, Austin, TX 78751 between Duval and Red River. Tickets are $20, $10 for the first weekend, and $15 for students and artists, and can be purchased online at brownpapertickets.com, or reserved by emailing exchangeartists@gmail.com.

Circle the Wagons is an intimate look at car culture- broadly defined. The production combines full ensemble performances with intimate, five-minute plays in cars. The audience will move from car to car witnessing a thematically connected but independent short play in each one. This production offers not only intimacy with performers, but also an intimacy with the subject of car culture. What do cars mean to you; independence, isolation, a secret haven, a death trap? Does your car define you? What only happens in a car that couldn’t or wouldn’t happen anywhere else? Join us for the trip! There will be music, dancing, and a percussive car orchestra- played with the cars themselves.

Circle the Wagons is an original, immersive, theatrical experience that features the work of playwright Katherine Craft along with local playwrights Sarah Saltwick, Cleve Wiese, Rohan Joseph and Gwen Copeland, musical composition by Content Love Knowles and Rohan Joseph, costume design by Sarah Harless, and technical design by Zac Crofford. Rachel Wiese directs. Performers are Laura Artesi, Doug Costello, Mindy Cook, Zac Crofford, Karina Dominguez, Bridget Farr, Anne Hulsman, Amber Lackey, Content Love Knowles, Vanessa Marie, Tisha Monsey, Katie Richter, and Bradley Silman.
