Momentaries are 1 minute performances, filmed and recorded to be shared on The Lockdown. Submissions of these bits can come from anyone at anytime during our collective time in social isolation.

What do I do when I’m alone?

How am I with them?

These are questions one might choose to examine in 60 seconds. Or one could examine a house plant, a ceiling fan, a feeling, or nothing at all.
