The Unplugging Movie Flyer
A flyer for "The Unplugging" by New Native Theatre is posted on a fence at the site of the former Gandhi Mahal restaurant in Minneapolis on September 13, 2021. The restaurant was destroyed in May 2020 during civil unrest following the murder of George Floyd. The play, written and directed by Yvette Nolan, ran from September 2-19, 2021, at this location. "The Unplugging" was presented as a free event with a suggested ticket price of $35 or pay-what-you-can, ensuring no one was turned away.
