We are turning off the lights! In this Festival and environmental initiative, The Tank is celebrating innovative performance that utilizes self-sufficient and alternative energy sources. Artists are using everything from glow-in-the-dark mouth guards to flashlights and more to shed some light on their work. Don't worry - we keep the AC on. SHOT IN THE DARK is Dark Fest's variety show of work all done with no lights from our grid.


PROGRAM A

Surface Tension
Created and Performed by Liz Oakley
A solo performance of objects, bodies, and illumination, Surface Tension uses movement and puppetry to explore encounters between the inside and the outside.


Voicemail Symphony
Created by Travis Amiel
Voicemail Symphony is an interactive composition featuring my actual voicemail archive. featuring performances from my family, friends, doctor's offices, and spam agencies.


The Delay
Written and Directed by Emma Gometz

The Delay is a play about two subway trains stuck on the tracks, wondering what's stopped them. It's also about anxiety, fear, how we try to control our lives, and how much of that control is just in our heads.
