Balls and Hoops: Dashia and RM

Dashia is a clown playing with balls. R.M. is a clown playing with hoops. Together, they are crafting an hour at the Lyric, asking the question -- how much fun can we have with circular objects? Is this planet a ball? Is time a hoop? Is my heart a circle? Don't think too hard, or you'll miss the ball.
