Shows include Dot, A Video Game with No Winner, in which "synchronized sounds and images, played by a “game console” built and programmed by the artist, and controlled by retro videogame joysticks" tell a story, and That Cute Radioactive Couple: A Post-Apocalyptic Comedy, which is "inspired by post-apocalyptic and dystopian video games like Fallout, Wasteland and Bioshock," and "has bittersweet fun with end of the world." - Brick Theater. Showtimes vary; see schedule.
