OFF-LEASH AREA'S
​

NEIGHBORHOOD GARAGE TOUR 
​​

IS...

the company's ​arts access program where the company travels from community to community with a truck full of lighting, staging, seating, performers, and more.

​Each weekend of the Neighborhood Garage Tour (NGT) the company transforms a typical 2-car garage into a 40-seat black box theater, bringing joy, laughter, and wonder directly into metro neighborhoods.

A Show Entirely in a Garage!
