PLAYING WITH POLITICS!

Join us on Wednesday, February 18th at New Perspectives Studio, 458 West 37th Street for THE SUFFRAGISTS, staged readings of three short plays written at the turn of the 20th Century in support of women's suffrage. Directed by Melissa Attebery, with Dramaturgy by Barbara Cohen-Stratyner, join us for The Play In Context introduction and a discussion post-reading, Doors open at 6:30pm. As always, admission is by donation.

TAKE A JOURNEY WITH HARRIET!

STEAL AWAY: The Living History of Harriet Tubman, part of our World Voices program, returns for PAY WHAT YOU CAN AFFORD performances on Saturday and Sunday, February 22, and March 7 & 8. After the play, kids get to meet Harriet and learn two songs that she and her friends and family sang as they escaped from slavery. They also get to meet the puppets!
