Synopsis: | 167 Tongues explores the emotional geography of Jackson Heights, the most culturally diverse neighborhood in the world. Intermittent street scenes weave together alongside continuous stories in this 37-character play. An Indian sweet shop vendor struggles to keep her store going and her suitors at bay, a Nepali woman and a Mexican man fall in love across a linguistic divide, an Irish ghost befriends an troubled Ecuadorian girl and her Bangladeshi best friend, a Dominican manicurist wonders whether her Jewish Chinese boyfriend will propose before she is deported by the INS, and a Rwandan night nurse attempts to understand the 167 distinct languages spoken in the local Emergency Room. This theatrical experience combines street scenes with continuous narratives, found sounds, and movement in an exploration of Jackson Heights, Queens, the most diverse neighborhood in the world. | |||||

Synopsis: | Seven playwrights explore the most culturally diverse neighborhood in the world from 10pm-4amits brightest lights and loneliest cornersin dance clubs, all-night bakeries, sex shops, laundromats, side streets, and alleyways. They ate arepas prepared by the "sainted arepa lady" and, two blocks away, saw the homeless fed by the local hero a.k.a. "Angel of Queens" under the elevated trains. They interviewed numbers-players, sex trafficking experts, bartenders, cops, and cross-dressers. They were invited to dance, to gamble, and to watch an undercover police operation& And they were invited to let their imaginations run dark, funny, sexy, and very very late. It was written using collaborative methods developed by Theatre 167, with the seven playwrights sharing characters and storylines, melding distinct voices and languages into one whole. | |||||

Synopsis: | Jamie, 17, a sophisticated New York City private school student, answers the door one day expecting her drug dealer - and instead finds her S.A.T. tutor. Things degenerate from there. First Jamie tries to get out of being tutored and then she tries to cut a deal with the tutor, Clark. He doesn't have much sympathy for her plight. They clash right away and seem to have very different values and priorities. But as the play progresses, she and Clark negotiate an unusual pact. Soon enough, all the snap judgments these two had about each other will get thrown out the window, and they'll both be surprised by what they learn. | |||||
