Step into and out of time in Time Out!, a fanciful look at our efforts to control time, only to find our timely devices controlling us.
JDPE's highly-acclaimed ensemble introduces the edgy themes it is known for amidst a quirky landscape of characters who appear before time
was discovered and transform into our technology-burdened soul mates of today, searching for a minute or two of uninterrupted time, never to
be found. Our biological clocks are tickled in Time Out! and humored into a realm where time becomes spatial and new dimensions of ourselves
and the world become possible. Time Out! features a commissioned score by musician/composer David Yih.
