HIKER TRASH
You’ve been following the blog of a current Appalachian Trail thru-hiker named Marianna and suddenly, after months of just reading about their adventures, they want to actually meet you in person. They’ve suggested you and a few of their other followers meet at a local gear shop while they’re in NYC. What will happen when you meet a person in real life that you’ve only known as a story?
Hiker Trash is an immersive and highly interactive show for an intimate audience of 4. This piece takes place at Outlandish in Crown Heights, Brooklyn. Please arrive 5 minutes early to meet with Marianna. Anyone arriving more than 5 minutes late will be welcome but might miss important moments. The majority of this piece will take place seated and will last approximately 45 minutes.
