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

Notes:
Winner of the 10th Annual Playwriting Contest at Emerson College.
Synopsis:
This play is an ensemble piece requiring 5 actors and actresses to play 18 different roles. The setting for the play is a busy city park and the action centers on two characters: a young girl, Milly and an older businessman, Phil. Throughout the play a bond grows between the two after Milly loses her mother in the park. Other characters move in and out of the scene, listening to and watching the pair, or being listened to and watched themselves. The dialogue deals with friendship, love, and possession, but the central theme remains throughout-how our role as passive observers effects the decisions and judgments that we make about others.

Synopsis:
Barbara, a chicken farmer living in Upstate New York has traveled to the city to spread the word to the masses about 'Your Own Personal Apocalypse.' She has brought with here hundreds of printed pamphlets, a basket full of baby chickens and a desire to communicate her message to everyone she meets. She sets up shop in storefronts, on the streets or in whatever space she can muster, drawing the audience in to her world and ideas through the pamphlets, her words, a video she has created and a handful of activities, including a method of predicting when your personal apocalypse is going to happen.
