NAMED WESTWORD'S BEST IMMERSIVE THEATRICAL PERFORMANCE! The rules were...it had to be written by a Colorado resident, no longer than 15 minutes, and related to books. This was the gauntlet that Denver Center for the Performing Arts's Off-Center threw down to Colorado playwrights. Chosen from a pool of 200+ submissions, five short plays were at the center of a first-of-its-kind showcase in Denver: an evening of experiential micro theatre produced by DCPA Off-Center, and staged in tiny spaces at northwest Denver's beloved indie bookstore, BookBar. A compilation of original works featuring storylines ranging from quirky to momentous, Bite Size includes the five performed micro plays plus five more of the judge favorites: * A Pocket Full of Dandelions by Kristen Adele Calhoun * Holy Couch by Edith Weiss * Marginalia by Jeffrey Neuman * Outside the Room by Theatre Artibus, Grapefruit Lab + Larry Mitchell * Toxoplasmosis by Sean Michael Cummings * Something to Read at the End of the World by Maureen Biermann * The F Word by Claire Caviglia * The Missing Piece by Christina Miller + Addie Levinsky * The Side of the Room by Dakota Hill * Malum by Ashley Rice With poetry by Denver poet, activist and speaker Theo E.J. Wilson! This evocative anthology is both a must-read for theater buffs and a delightful memento for those who enjoyed the performances in person.

The role of the artist is to make the revolution irresistible. These words from Toni Cade Bambara guide Kristen Adele Calhoun's work as a playwright, performer and organizer. She is the founding program director of ArtChangeUS and co-producer of InterFest, an intersectional arts and ideas festival that began at the Harlem School of the Arts. She is the assistant editor of Contemporary Plays by Women of Color, and her play, Canfield Drive, about Ferguson, the murder of Mike Brown and the revolutionary power of healing in the face of oppression, had a rolling world premiere in 2019 at the St. Louis Black Rep and The National Black Theatre Festival. Other plays include Black Cypress Bayou, The Oldest Town in Texas, Quilombo (5280 Artists Coop), With These Hands (Black American West Museum), and Ain't Gonna Let Nobody (NAACP). A native of Dallas, Texas, she is a graduate of the University of North Texas and the Mason Gross School of the Arts at Rutgers University.
