City of Dark
A Hybrid Workshop Production By Michael Hagins Directed by Rachael Langton Featuring: Michael Hagins, Enrique Huili, Ita Korenzecher, Michael Pichardo, Leka Ward, and Rachel Weekley Performing Live from the Theater at the 14th Street Y for a Virtual Audience, presented through a partnership with the Theater at the 14th St Y and a part of a two week LAB. Performed and Streamed Live Friday, May 28 and Saturday, May 29 at 7pm EST Rising Sun Performance Company’s first live-streamed hybrid production takes us to the apocalyptic end of the world in Michael Hagin’s new play City of Dark. Desperation turns to violence as walls close in on six outcasts who fight to survive the end of the world. How does humanity manifest when resources run short, when the world is about to explode, when the outside threatens our lives? This timely play explores the depth of human nature and how desperation and survival transform us. Tickets start in tiers at $5 and are pay what you can to ensure that financial barrier is not an issue for audiences. Access to the recorded Performances will be available for one week after the live stream for all ticket holders. |
