Synopsis: | Imagine that you dont have a country. It doesnt matter if you believe youre American, because no one else believes younot potential employers, not banks that issue student loans, not the government. There is no way to become legally American. You dont exist. Worse, you are hunted for deportation. You love this country, but the country does not love you back. In Dream Acts, five undocumented teens from Nigeria, Mexico, Ukraine, Korea, and Jordan face the extraordinary challenge of living ordinary lives under the radar. Each story is moving and urgent; some are funny, others are tragic, and through their experiences, we learn about facts about the DREAM Act and the secret lives lead by undocumented youth. | |||||

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 | |||||
