This Friday and Saturday (6/12 & 6/13)!

Join us for “Anyone There?” from Artist-in-Residence Jessica Bauman and created with members of the University Settlement community. "Anyone There?" is a performance piece using verbatim text, movement, music and audience-engaged play to rediscover our fundamental human capacity to connect.

The world is full of conflict, isolating devices, and social (and emotional) distancing. What can we do to stay connected?

This week Friday (5/8) and Saturday (5/9), join us for a workshop performance of Artist-in-Residence Jason Wang’s new interactive play “AGAIN”!

“AGAIN”
A Workshop Performance
By Jason Wang
Directed by Jonathan Chang

May 8 @ 7:30pm
May 9 @ 11am

Speyer Hall @ University Settlement
184 Eldridge Street NYC 10002
Use for tickets and more information!

"AGAIN" is an experimental and interactive new play that uses our intimate inner dialogues to explore how the things we used to do transform us until and beyond the end of our lives. Because there are chickens in the backyard that require immediate assistance, bedroom trash must be airlifted, and there is no one left to walk the dog. Is purpose a thing you find once, or over and over again? AGAIN is being developed based on testimonies of seniors from University Settlement's senior centers & Wellness Together participants.
