As We Live It (2020)

Directed by Eva Barrie & Desirée Leverenz
Featuring text written by Jeff Ho & Kaitlyn Riordan

In the spring of 2020, the Ruffians had to wildly reimagine what was possible for live theatre. As As We Live It wandered through Withrow Park, it explored questions collaboratively compiled by the whole creative team: isolation, anti-racism, and growing zucchinis

Trailer by Gloria Mok (animation) and Maddie Bautista (sound/music).
