Our Work
Loom Lab has created three original, full-length shows in Minneapolis, MN, plus a previous workshop presentation of old growth. We've worked with dancers, physical theatre artists, classical actors, filmmakers, aerialists, stunt professionals, and more to create imaginative, evocative work that challenges conventional form. ​​
Persephone (2017)
Premiering at the Ritz Theater as a part of the MN Fringe Festival, Persephone was the first of our original, devised works that blur the line between theater and dance. Persephone utilized improvisational and set moments of narrative and movement to guide audiences through an integrated exploration of life with a mental illness.

Persephone (2018)
Our first fully self-produced work, this slightly reimagined, remounted Persephone was presented in-the-round at Off-Leash Art Box. With new and returning collaborators, Persephone 2.0 expanded upon our signature, mixed-media aesthetic and tirelessly crafted stage magic.

The Middle Keeps Moving (2018)
Presented at the Southern Theater also as a part of the MN Fringe Festival, The Middle Keeps Moving confronts the oft-dizzying work of healing. Dipping a toe into the realm of Theatre of the Absurd, this entirely new work emerged from extensive narrative collaboration.

old growth (2024)
Our third original work, old growth explores themes of identity, community, grief, and joy through the lens of the natural world. Building upon our foundation of devised dance theatre work, this highly-visual piece weaves in puppetry and aerial movement to coalesce into a truly ensemble-based show.
