Three courses in the Tufts University Department of Theatre, Dance, and Performance come together to celebrate diverse and extraordinary work in the TDPS Winter Workshop Festival. Tonight, Renata Celichowska and Sheriden Thomas cast a farcical eye toward our relationship with trees and sustainability in the dance theatre piece “Pinos Loquentes,” and Meghan Pearson’s Puppetry in Performance course develops an original puppet show, “Puppets at an Exhibition,” utilizing creations made in the classroom.

Tickets are $5 through the Tufts Online Ticket Office. Second performance of each piece will be presented at 7 p.m. on Saturday, December 10.
