THE CURIOUS INCIDENT OF THE DOG IN THE NIGHT-TIME racked up awards in both London and NYC, including winning the Tony Award for best play in 2015. Just last year the Broadway tour stopped in Minneapolis, which I saw and was impressed by the clever and inventive storytelling. Now available for regional productions, Mixed Blood Theatre is bringing us their take on the play. The West End/Broadway production was very tech-heavy, and I was curious what this story with a smaller-scale production and in a smaller house would look like. It turns out I like it even better. The 15-person Broadway cast has been reduced to just 9, with very smart casting and direction. There are still some pretty impressive tech effects, but also some great low-tech effects that all serve this story of a 15-year-old boy with an unspecified autism-like condition who goes on an epic journey in search of the truth.
In 2011, Mixed Blood Theatre launched Radical Hospitality, a no-cost admission program created to remove the financial barrier for audience participation in the theatre. While Radical Hospitality is certainly the theatre's most widely-recognized access initiative, founding Artistic Director, Jack Reuler, the staff and Board have been redefining what it means to be radically hospitable for the entirety of Mixed Blood's existence.
