Synopsis: | For these plays, there is no curtain, no footlights, no stage. Just six site-specific, short related plays from Women's Project Theater Company written for the lobbies, mezzanines, escalators, bridges, nooks, and crannies of the World Financial Center complex, 220 Vesey Street, that people pass through every day. The plays, grouped under the title Global Cooling: The Women Chill, share one topic: global warming is not so hot. All written, directed, and produced by women, these plays take place in real time and touch on the issues of Global Cooling that affect not only real people but scientists and mother nature. Global Cooling: The Women Chill is the third site-specific theatrical event Women's Project has delivered to artsWorld Financial Center and is another installment of 'hit and run theater' where business people, tourists and shoppers traveling through the World Financial Center may walk around, through or in a play without even knowing they have a role in the performance. Part of this experiment from Women's Project's playwright, director and producer lab is to see how real people react as a play happens next to them or around them or even with them | |||||

Synopsis: | Miss Lilly, a Sunday school teacher, has been waiting patiently for God to drop a man in her lap. When a new student - a young South African boy whose mother was killed by an elephant - disturbs the harmony of her classroom and his father disturbs the harmony of her heart, Miss Lilly is forced to re-examine her own sense of faith and self. Right or wrong, sinful or holy - a natural force is at work in Miss Lilly's classroom where her hymns are accompanied by the rumble of angry elephants and her prayers are answered by a stranger to her god. Nominated for the L. Arnold Weissberger Playwriting Award in the US, Miss Lilly Gets Boned is a wild exploration of love, courage, family, sex and religion from one of America's most exciting new playwrights. | |||||

Some plays are funny, some touching, some far out there, some close in here, but after an evening where you'll encounter the love for Harry Potter, a big gay storytelling frog, two guys taking a road trip, an abortion and a girl on a subway, you'll see that while love is a vast, complicated thing, the best kind of love is quick and cheap. | |||||

When Monsieur Trelkovsky rents a room recently vacated by a woman who fell from her window, he soon finds his world changing in bizarre ways. Haunted by images of the previous tenant's apparent suicide and terrorized by his new neighbors, Trelkovsky begins a slow descent into paranoia and delirium. Staged and installed by Woodshed Collective over five building stories in the historic West Park Presbyterian Church parish house, The Tenant features an original script by a team of New York's brightest up-and-coming playwrightsBekah Brunstetter, Sarah Burgess, Paul Cohen, Dylan Dawson, Steven Levenson, and Tommy Smith. Each playwright has written the story of a separate denizen of this Parisian tenement, and collaborated with Woodshed Collective to create a living building. | |||||
