Band of Toughs + Boulder Arts Week

Five 5ths: The Big Lebowski

What happens when Boulder Arts Week is taken over by a cult-classic film, split it into five parts, and handed to five different Boulder-based artists? Pure theatrical chaos — and unforgettable fun!

Band of Toughs presents Five 5ths: The Big Lebowski, a reimagined romp through White Russians, wayward rugs, and bowling alley absurdity. Originally produced by the Boulder Fringe Festival, this annual tradition is back and bigger than ever — with five troupes, five styles, one hilarious whole.

Featuring Five Boulder-based artists and performance groups:

• Integr8d Soul: Music, spoken word, and dance

• Francesco Bruno-Bossio: Poetry

• Beyond Academia Free Skool: Poetry and performance art

• Band of Toughs: A Theatre Collaboratory: Theatre

• Kitty Kalebarn & the Ministry of Sacred Silliness
  

Band of Toughs (aka BoTs)

AN ENSEMBLE THAT CREATES

GENRE-MASHING, ORIGINAL SHOWS, and ADAPTATIONS

Mission Statement:

Band of Toughs is committed to producing original, genre-mashing, theatrical work; developing projects in a creative, educational, laboratory process in which the audience is invited to engage in an exchange of ideas as collaborators. Audience responses are incorporated into the ensuing rehearsal process and directly inform the development of final productions.
