BareBones 2020 · OFFERINGS: Artists Respond to the Mourning, Grieving and Fires on Lake Street
Oanh Vu
Pie in the Sky
What is police abolition? How can we reimagine safety in a way that supports people and truly prevents crime? And how would you, as a Minneapolis resident, like to see our money spent?
Check back soon to view a premiere of the short film, Pie in the Sky, and watch as our puppet friends Ruff the Dog and Bao The Bird grapple with these questions through song and dance.
Written and directed by Oanh Vu.
