“Explosive youthful energy…sheer intelligence…sense of history…radical theatrical vision… willingness to express idealism and hope, as well as cynicism and despair, gives their work its special richness, and its political edge… new heights of controlled madness.” -The Scotsman

What if Robert F. Kennedy had survived the assassination in 1968? Why would citizens most harmed by domestic policies empower their government further? What happens when outsiders are allowed in? Following their sold-out run in London and the 2006 Edinburgh Fringe Festival, The TEAM presents a play about losing sight of America and trying to fall back in love with it.

Approximate Running Time : 1 hour, 45 minutes

No Where

No Where

Where do emotion and mathematics meet? No Where. Artistic Director of mvworks Megan V. Sprenger embarks on an instinctual, methodical and ultimately irreversible journey. Three dancers using raw, unadorned movement wend their way through equations of pure logic toward personal discovery.

Every Day Above Ground

★★★★★ “Watching them is pure joy”
– The Irish Times

“An ensemble that inspires new respect for the craft”
– Variety

This bold re-imagining of Booker Prize-winner Michael Ondaatje’s Collected Works of Billy the Kid by Brooklyn and Montreal-based ensemble SaBooge Theatre is a dark and groundbreaking meditation on life, after death. Every Day brings an outlaw to the afterlife, following William Bonney into the landscape of his mortality, where myth and life are re-visioned; a place where the assassin’s bullet is only the beginning.

SaBooge’s ‘superb ensemble cast’ (Irish Times) are joined by sound designer and Drama Desk nominee Jeff Lorenz in the official premiere of this ‘bold, unfettered adaptation’ (Irish Theatre Magazine).

Divine Comedy of an Exquisite Corpse

“The bemused blond of downtown performance art”
-The New York Times

“Julie Atlas Muz is the quintessence of fabulousness”
-Gay City News

Including post-mortem dance, ballet, mime, endurance exercises, burlesque and jazz, Muz will purposefully create the worst dance ever in hope that audiences will cheer at her tragic death. Her artful, unique and darkly eccentric performance style delivers tender and terrifying, hysterical and heretical vignettes exploring issues of freedom, fame, mortality and sacrifice.

Miss Exotic World and Miss Coney Island 2006, a 2004 Whitney Biennial and Valencia Bienal Artist, Muz continues to celebrate the ever political lineage of naked ladies in public spaces as set in motion by Lady Godiva.

Edith and Jenny

Edith and Jenny

Edith and Jenny

” penetrates past muscle and bone right to the women’s spirit…”
– Apollinaire Scherr, Newsday, on Christina Olson: American Model

Interwined through Rogoff’s signature choreography, performers Claire Danes and Ariel Rogoff Flavin explore the intimacy that has marked their life-long friendship.

Danes and Flavin encounter their eleven year-old selves on screen, captured in their respective film debuts, Claire as Edith in Dreams of Love, and Ariel as Jenny in Coyote Mountain. Rites of passage unfold in fragments revealing the complexities of two fictional families. The lines between screen and stage, life and art, are blurred as Edith and Jenny, Danes and Flavin, form an alliance, stepping through and beyond their films and the fates of their families.

Approximate running time: 60 minutes
