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: | Sounding follows the story of Leda, a former New York City art-rock goddess who now finds herself in a very different life as the wife of a Cape Cod psychiatrist. Despite Leda's departure from her days as a performer, a Dionysian musician from her past, The Stranger, refuses to release her. While Leda mourns the death of her infant child, she confronts the chaos and outsized desire that The Stranger brings over the course of one wild weekend where ex-lovers collide and realign at an astounding rate. Although an original work, Sounding draws inspiration from Ibsen's Lady From The Sea, notably its structure and characters. | |||||
