Coming September 12-27 2025...

In the magical and comical Stardust Rendezvous, three wayward space travelers from three remote galaxies simultaneously crash-land on an asteroid at the edge of nowhere. As they comically bumble their way to circumnavigate their wildly different cultures, will they finally come together to defy the gravity of their situation, and succeed in a valiant attempt to shoot for the stars?!

​This year’s show features original choreography, script, music, projection design, lighting design, and performances, all by professional Twin Cities artists.

Stardust Rendezvous continues Off-Leash Area’s 26-year run of wildly imaginative, physically dynamic, visually striking, and award-winning work, and features choreography, script, music, projection design, lighting design, and performances all by Twin Cities artists.

Additionally, with The Neighborhood Garage Tour program Off-Leash Area continues to center inclusion and access for artists and audiences of all abilities. Verbal and non-verbal communication will be artistically crafted as part of the performance, weaving art making and accessibility together.
 
Featured on TPT’s MN Original program and Fox 9 News, Off-Leash Area’s Annual Neighborhood Garage Tour has delighted over 3600 Minnesotans of all ages with 120 performances of four original productions presented throughout the Twin Cities metro in 44 neighborhoods of 17 municipalities.
