The Experimental Theater was transformed into a giant laundry room
Audience members were highly encouraged to make use of the space and had no boundaries to what they could do
Chelsea Pace served as a one woman show, but the production was not centered around her performance, but rather the space itself. Here Chelsea brings in the first wave of audience members.

Chelsea roamed the space and would use dialogue throughout (which was also being played on a speaker the entire performance). She also would interact with audience members, such as seen here with Visiting Assistant Professor of Biology Jennifer Ison.
