Nothing By Mouth — Rhino Fest 2024 – Facility Theatre

When your insides become your outsides, shit gets tough. After an unexpected diagnosis, Charlotte Lastra tries to understand what to do with a body she never expected to have. By methods poetic, scientific and illustrative she takes a journey through the digestive system and into the belly of a whale. A one-person show with low-fi overhead projector animation, Nothing By Mouth is an exploration of the mechanics of literally digesting an experience.

Venue Notes: Facility Theatre is located at 1138 N. California Ave, just south of Division in the Humboldt Park neighborhood. Metered street parking is usually possible nearby, and the California and Division buses also stop close to the building. Facility is a first-floor venue with a wheelchair-accessible entrance and two accessible bathrooms. Beverages will be available at a concession stand before performances.

Note: The Puerto Rican Festival will take place one block north in Humboldt Park on June 6-9. This will make the neighborhood more crowded and lively than usual! Parking may be a challenge. Please budget extra travel time if you are seeing shows at Facility this weekend.
