After a 16-month hiatus from full production, Boulder-based square product theatre returns in the New Year, with plans for two productions, including the Regional Premiere of London, UK-based theatre-maker Greg Wohead's "Celebration, Florida," and the World Premiere of "Everything was Stolen. ," an original work developed in London, UK by Emily K. Harrison, square product theatre producing artistic director. Featuring two performers who have never met, "Celebration, Florida" is a quietly surreal show for anyone who has ever missed anyone or anything. Veering between reality and simulation, the piece orbits around ideas of surrogacy; a stand-in to replace a person you miss, a re-creation of an experience you can't stop thinking about, nostalgia for a place that perhaps never existed. Greg will speak to the audience through two performers using pre-recorded audio and headphones. They will know almost nothing about the show when they walk onstage.
