Robin Frohardt—the visionary behind the critically acclaimed Plastic Bag Store (TPA ’22) and a 2024 Herb Alpert Award-winner—returns to Austin with a new, genre-defying live-cinema performance. Through a hand-built cardboard set, live puppetry, and cinematic projection, the work reimagines the parking lot as part of the ecosystem, blurring the line between the natural and the constructed.

April 16-19, 2026 | Katie Bender: Instructions for a Séance

Venue: Bass Concert Hall Rehearsal Room

Date/Time:

• April 16, 2026 7:00 pm
• April 17, 2026 9:00 pm
• April 18, 2026 5:00 pm & 9:00pm
• April 19, 2026 3:00 pm

In this unique immersive theatre, DIY experience—created and performed by writer/artist Bender—the audience is invited to summon the spirit of escape artist Harry Houdini and maybe, in the process, break free from the traps in their own lives. Instructions for a Séance is a playful yet poignant exploration of motherhood, artistic ambition, and the urge to disappear. Inspired by the Houdini archives at the Ransom Center, Séance is a 70-minute theatrical gem: compact, gleaming, and utterly unforgettable.

April 17-19, 2026 | Rude Mechs: Not Every Mountain

Venue: B. Iden Payne Theatre

Date/Time:

• April 17, 2026 7:00 pm
• April 18, 2026 7:00 pm
• April 19, 2026 3:00 pm

Austin’s Rude Mechs return to one of their most beguiling works. Not Every Mountain is a mellow meditation on change, permanence and our place in the natural world. It tells the story of the life cycle of mountains and the processes by which they are born and eventually laid to rest, an invocation of tectonic force and geologic time.rnrnUsing string, cardboard and magnets, the Rudes invites us to watch the collective effort of making and unmaking a series of interlocking mountain ranges.
