​Arts on the Horizon is pleased to announce its 2022-23 season, which will include two world-premiere productions: Fitting In and Arco Iris. This celebratory season will also include a remount of audience favorite, Squeakers and Mr. Gumdrop, in December.

In celebration of our 10th Anniversary season, we will also have a few special surprise events happening throughout the year. Information about these events will be announced soon!


In addition, we are also excited to announce a new partnership with 1st Stage - all three of our productions this season will be presented in both Alexandria and Tysons Corner! We are thrilled to have the opportunity to collaborate with our colleagues at 1st Stage and expand our audience reach.

One snowy winter morning, Mr. Gumdrop prepares for his annual holiday party!  When an unexpected and curious mouse appears, Mr. Gumdrop's routine is thrown for a loop. Can these two wildly different characters work together to get the holiday preparations done in time?  This nonverbal, imaginative production captures the magic of making new friends and sharing ideas to accomplish big goals.

Three siblings find themselves in a room full of possibilities and one not so simple task- to put things in their proper place.  However, they soon discover that throwing this and that into a box is not the same as finding where it fits in.

Through clowning, movement, and original music, three performers will transform everyday objects into something extraordinary. Is a blanket a blanket? Or is it the sail of a boat setting off on an epic voyage? Together, we can find the magic buried in the bottom of every box, and hidden inside the world around us!

In Alexandria, VA: June 9-25, 2023
At 1st Stage: June 29-July 1, 2023

Best for children ages 3-6 and their families
Iris is excited about taking a trip to el parque with Abuela! But while getting ready, Iris has a hard time deciding what color shirt to wear. As Iris and Abuela explore each of the colors, they discover the different ways colors appear in the world and their own unique beauty. Abuela reminds Iris that each color lives inside everyone, so even if we choose one, the rainbow is always a part of us. 
 
Told through vibrant imagery, dynamic movement, and a beautiful soundscape created by each of the performers, this sensory-rich production is inspired by a Zapoteca myth and Quechua legends about the rainbow.
