Dan Froot

Dan Froot’s music/dance/theater works have appeared at the London ICA, Harare International Festival (Zimbabwe), Festival de Dança de Londrina (Brazil), Joyce Theater & Symphony Space (NYC), Edinburgh Fringe, and many other places. His work delves into the emotional entanglements of hunger, plastics pollution, and the gun debate. Awards include a Bessie (NY Dance & Performance Award), a City of Los Angeles Artist Fellowship, and a playwriting fellowship from Foundation for Jewish Culture.

One Word is a multimedia ensemble theater project investigating the individual choices and motivations driving the global plastics crisis. Drawing on archival and ethnographic sources, Dan Froot & Company “reenact” freely imagined pivotal moments in the lives of plastics industry innovators and insiders, while giving voice to the communities most impacted.
