Meet Me @Metro II is an exciting theatrical journey that takes place at Metro stops between Watts and Long Beach. Through the prism of this year's “Traveling Circus” theme, Meet Me @Metro II will entertain audiences with performances from over 10 cutting-edge, professional Los Angeles theater companies, bands and solo artists. With the help of your tour guide and the Metro Art Docents, you will take a journey on Metro from the Watts Towers through Long Beach and back. Experience colorful and inspiring performances near stations along the way as you become part of a side show caravan. Each theater company has developed a 5-10 minute piece to engage the community in which it will perform using theater, dance, puppetry, music and spectacle. Bring the family and enjoy unique productions that highlight the cultural richness and diversity of South Los Angeles and Long Beach. Come and be transported by Metro and the arts!
Meet Me @Metro II is a presentation of Watts Village Theater Company, a multicultural urban theater company that inspires its community with an appreciation of all cultures through new works about contemporary social issues.
