About
O, Tomato! is a saucy, sensory, dance theater celebration of a widely-beloved, yet often misidentified, fruit. Created in partnership with local urban gardeners, O, Tomato! invites audiences to play, move, laugh, sing, squish, slice, and savor within community. Ay, tomate!
This interactive performance is a recognition of the tomato in all of its sizes, colors, and shapes, and a celebration of the urban gardeners, farmers, chefs, and bakers who give this special plant its ubiquitous and versatile life.
Produced by Marisol Soledad’s The Exuberance : an art-based platform for intergenerational play and connection in public space.
