This week and next, Pillsbury House Theatre offers three new works by up-and-coming Minnesota performance artists. "The Ways I Wished To Love Her" by A.P. Looze uses mirrors, light and mythology to explore the psychological concept of mirroring. Anat Shinar deconstructs domesticity with a solo piece titled "Something Elegant, Like This." Finally, Chitra Vairavan's "Cloth and Body" takes place throughout the Pillsbury House building, with a single performance offered Jan. 26.
