Off-Leash Area is thrilled to announce the 2024 Neighborhood Garage Tour, our grass-roots, out-of-the-box neighborhood performance program! For eight years Off-Leash Area has been bringing original contemporary theater & dance to neighborhoods across the Twin Cities metro, delighting over 3500 Minnesotans in over 40 diverse communities.

This year’s touring production is a return of “The Medicine Show of the 25th Century” - in the distant future we follow a troupe of animal hybrid humans on a quest to find the mythical “perfect human being”. To fuel their quest, they travel from town to town, hawking a cure-all elixir for solutions to the world’s toughest problems.

With “The Medicine Show of the 25th Century” Off-Leash Area invites neighbors of all ages to a fun and imaginative tale told with both raucous comedy and whimsical beauty. Join us for a neighborhood gathering on a beautiful autumn evening in the most surprising and midwestern of venues, a 2-car residential garage, where we prepare together to take off on an adventure of the imagination far, far into the future!

​With direction and choreography by OLA Co-Artistic Director Jennifer Ilse, set and projections by OLA Co-Artistic Director Paul Herwig, and sound and music by Gabriel Rodreick (Freaque), and performed by these artists plus long time OLA cast member Jesse Schmitz-Boyd, lights and technical direction by Jenny Moeller, and costuming by "Melancholy" and "Pistachio".
