“My hope is (to) get people in, get them to talk to each other and experience something weird together.'
At the heart of the neighborhood is RiNo Art Park, a collection of brick-laden buildings nestled against the new Arkins Promenade park and the South Platte River., Von Guinness is celebrating a landmark opening there – an affordable, multi-use performance space dubbed the Truss House.
“We really want to make things mobile, so any kind of proper stage or anything we have in that space is going to be folded up and can be put away,” Von Guinness said. “We really want to see audiences interacting with the creatives and feeling a part of that creative process.” As Von Guinness was constructing the space, she received input from local groups like experimental performance crew Odd Knock Productions, whom she also recruited to perform at the building’s opening. Odd Knock artistic director Brendan Duggan landed on “Good Bones” for the three-night opening performances, an immersive dance-theater production that tells the story of an old woman at a housewarming party uncovering different elements of her psyche.
Von Guinness says they don’t have a full calendar yet, but that they hope to have music, dance and theater performances lined up by mid-August.
