(between Broadway & Sixth Ave. / Subway: 1,2,3,B,D,F,N,Q,R,V,W to 42nd St., 7 & shuttle to Times Square. Bus: M104, M42 to Sixth Ave., M5, M6, M7 to 43rd St.)
This October, art.party.theater.company puts contemporary social debates into a new perspective— with the help of a wheelbarrow. In association with chashama's celebrated WINDOWS program, art.party.theater.company will breathe life into William Carlos Williams' mysterious poem The Red Wheel Barrow through a daily performance project that aims to answer the question of what depends upon a red wheelbarrow in our modern society.
art.party.theater.company's team of directors, performers, and designers will construct new performances every night— tackling issues from the economy to television, from healthcare to Starbucks—armed with only performers, a wheelbarrow, and maybe some live chickens. Passers-by of the Times Square storefront will discover how Williams' poem relates to some of the most challenging issues in today's headlines in surprising, audacious, and thought-provoking performances.
Artistic Director: Mary Birnbaum
Executive Producer: Leticia Frazao
Conceived and Curated by Jess Burkle
