Arts Alive Series: Applied Mechanics

Part dinner party, part invasion, part performance art, THE COLONIALISTS challenge all audience members to consider where they are and how they got there, and at whose pleasure they remain.

Applied Mechanics will present THE COLONIALISTS in the David Owsley Museum of Art as part of the Arts Alive series, presented by the College of Fine Arts. Applied Mechanics has been making original immersive plays in Philadelphia and beyond for twelve years. From invasion plays, to site-specific performances, to whole invented worlds that arrive at your home in a box and over radio waves, they are masters at making plays that surround you, transform the world around you, and include you in the story.
