Upcoming performances, classes, and events.
LED Boise - Grace
nick joins led as a guest artist for grace.
A world premiere by LED Directors Lauren Edson and Andrew Stensaas, featuring explosive movement, an original score performed live and immersive scenic design. Set in the 1940s and inspired by the physical and emotional world of wrestling, GRACE turns play into a lens for examining human nature. Funny, fierce, and theatrical, it lives somewhere between a wrestling ring and a dinner party—where civility meets chaos, competition becomes connection, and the rules are always on the verge of breaking.
Featuring an ensemble from across the country, GRACE brings together a powerhouse group of artists for an evening of athleticism, humor, theatricality, and raw human connection.
