SPAGHETTI FESTIVAL: 10 NIGHTS OF 10 WILD NEW SHOWS! SEE WHAT STICKS!
As Kyle Mizono’s procrastination to create her first solo show mounts, a mysterious portal to her mind opens at the Glendale Galleria. Willing participants are able to inhabit her mind, and potentially change the outcome of her chaotic situation as the show approaches. Inspired by 1999 American surrealist classic, Being John Malkovich.
