Are you one of the few that we haven’t emailed our COIL brochure to? Don’t fret!
We recently released our full calendar for COIL 2016 online. 15 productions, 80+ shows and our killer Red + White Party will take some careful planning in order to ensure that you are seeing everything that you want!
Here is our downloadable COIL 2016 calendar. Also, here is the full COIL brochure!
It’s officially less than one week away and PS122 is getting really excited about Eric Bogosian’s 100 Monologues. This week we added new performers to the lineup including: Billy Crudup, Gaby Hoffmann, Marin Ireland, Craig ‘muMs’ Grant, Matthew Maher, Danny Mastrogiorgio. Tickets are going fast- we hope you can join us.
Last night was a proud moment for everyone here at PS122, as many of our artists and friends were recognized with Obie awards!
COIL 15 walked away big with:
CATCH winning an Obie and giving a moving speech that made us all realize why we’re here in the first place AND Andrew Schneider being awarded a special citation for YOUARENOWHERE at the Obie Awards!
Commissioned by PS122 and presented with The Invisible Dog Art Center, YOUARENOWHERE took COIL 2015 by storm. Schneider battled across unknown and glitchy virtual territories, warping linear timelines, transforming physical space and challenging any preconceived notions of the here and now.
Schneider has been creating original works for theater, video and installation since 2003. Rooted at the intersection of performance and technology, Schneider’s work critically investigates our over-dependence on being perpetually connected in an always-on world.
Big things are lined up for this whiz kid as Schneider and his techno savvy team are now getting geared up for a week at Mass Live Arts and PS122 GLOBAL touring in the Fall. But for now, some well earned celebrations are to be had! Congrats Andrew!
Here is Peter Musante, collaborator, accepting the award while Andrew is off in Belgium with The Wooster Group.

This month is the spiritual dawning of Royal Osiris Karaoke ensemble’s LUV Pavilion. Thats right, our upcoming RAMP artists have created a ‘a non-denominational polytechnical spiritual explorational hub and event center’ in Ridgewood, Queens. Here at PS, we are definitely in need of some spiritual healing.
Royal Osiris Karaoke Ensemble (ROKE) is a musical priesthood that explores the metaphysics and mythologies of love, desire and courtship at the end of the 20th century.
All through May, this LUV-ed up team have created a feast of unworldly delights! This includes an array of multimedia performances, defence speed dating and kaleidoscopic visions.
For more info check out the facebook!
Sending out love and good chi to our ROKE bros on their month long endeavour.
Namaste!
