Fringe Festival 2021: Colossal

Fringe Festival 2021: Colossal

Presented by Boston University College of Fine Arts at Joan & Edgar Booth Theatre

The Boston University Fringe Festival, now in its 25th season, is a collaboration between the College of Fine Arts School of Music: Opera Institute and School of Theatre. The festival’s mission is to produce new or rarely performed significant works in the opera and theatre repertoire, bringing performances and audiences together in unique theatrical settings. For over two decades, Fringe Festival at Boston University has celebrated and amplified new work, shown in spare and minimal productions.

A production of Boston University College of Fine Arts School of Theatre

A star football player – a pro prospect, one of the most graceful runners in the world, and a man in love with a teammate – struggles to move forward in the wake of a catastrophic spinal cord injury. With full-contact choreography, this play about love, ability, and extraordinary feats of strength tackles definitions of masculinity and the male body as vehicles for language, violence, and silent expression through dance, football, and disability.

Play written by Andrew Hinderaker
Yo-EL Cassell, director
