    Australia’s innovative Polyglot Theatre is bringing its acclaimed work We Built This City to Segerstrom Center for the Arts October 1 and 2 for four free public engagements on the Arts Plaza. The large-scale participatory installation takes the form of a public construction site, where an entire city is constructed using nothing but thousands of cardboard boxes and the energy and ingenuity of children and their families. We Built This City is one of many special activities planned for Segerstrom Center’s 25th Anniversary weekend celebration.

    We Built This Cityplaces children in the role of architect, empowering them to construct their ideal city. During the performance they will make buildings go up, pull them down, redesign them, extend, walk through, jump on and reconstruct them. The entire process is guided by performers in the role of construction workers who facilitate free play. And each session is underscored by music played by a DJ.
