BROKEN CITY: WALL STREET
July 21-31,2016
@ Wall St. NYC
Pop Up Theatrics
The stories will focus on the human transaction with time and achievement, not only in terms of success, but also exploring how we move ourselves through this world anchored to our past, in search of our future and imminently missing our present moments.
Conceived by PopUP Theatrics partners Ana Margineanu, Tamilla Woodard and Peca Stefan, real life and theatre collide in our 'street immersive' that invites nine audience members per performance to navigate the broken trails of stories, following the characters who populate this neighborhood of Manhattan. Broken City: Wall Street is our love letter to this place and these people.
Additionally for this installment, we are collaborating with UK’s Sign Dance Collective, pioneers of the art form of Sign Dance Theatre. Led by the deaf and physically disabled artistic team of Isolte Avila and David Bower, this innovative company fuses sign language with dance, theatre and live music to create electrifying performances all over the world.

SPLENDOR
OCTOBER 18 - NOVEMBER 16, 2013
THE PLAZA THEATER @ THE BOSTON CENTER FOR THE ARTS
COMPANY ONE
On Thanksgiving eve in a town just north of Boston, Fran is determined to make a nice turkey dinner for her chain-smoking klepto mother, and her couch-surfing older brother. If only it were that simple. A vivid collage of local stories exposes a community where generations of families collide over far more than pumpkin pie and stuffing. Straight off her smash-hit THE LUCK OF THE IRISH, local luminary and OBIE Award-winning playwright Kirsten Greenidge orchestrates 45 years of our history into evolving snapshots of race, class, dreams, and the place we call HOME. An outgrowth of Greenidge’s short play “Thanksgiving” (part of GRIMM, 2010), SPLENDOR was developed as part of the 2012-13 XX PlayLab.
