SKYPE DUET (Berlin 20.00 // 2p NYC)
(Berlin - 20/16 or 12/8 Euros // NY - $10)
Performed live simultaneously in New York and Berlin through Skype, two women try to relate and connect to each other and the world around them, but only through the safety of a computer screen- a quest for human connection in the modern world. Featuring live online interaction and lots of the unexpected, this piece provides the audience with the opportunity to personally connect with New York City and it's people (and vice versa).

Audience and actors mingle together, sharing food and laughs, while the other side of the table sits 4000 miles away. The table becomes the stage, and together we will connect on what it is that we have, and what it is we stand to lose.

Make Me Talk, or Watch me Drink (9:30p NYC)
($10 includes After-Party with drinks)
What happens when a global network of strangers collaborate on an instant, completely unedited and uncurated script? Absurdity or profundity? The audience is the playwright, and online social networking her pen and paper. Two dudes with nothing much to say, each having just purchased a 40 oz. bottle of cool refreshing malt liquor, sit at a table. In front of them is a cell phone, and a computer screen. Dude #1 utters a sentence. The audience, observing these two guys via an online video streaming service, begin to send them text messages, tweets, emails, and facebook chats in a desperate, quick attempt to collaboratively dictate a script. The guys read the lines as they come in, in the order they come in. And if there are no lines coming in... they drink. The play is over when they finish their malt liquor.
