Old Fashioned Prostitutes (A True Romance)
Written, Directed, and Designed by Richard Foreman
Featuring Stephanie Hayes, Alenka Kraigher, Nicolas Noreña, Rocco Sisto, David Skeist
April 30 - June 2
Snapshots from an enigmatic fairy-tale in which Suzie, the elusive coquette, brings Samuel to his knees – from where he worships a life he only half understands. OLD-FASHIONED PROSTITUTES (A TRUE ROMANCE) is an expressionistic chamber-play that twists emotional heartache into a landscape of continual mental invention, marking the return to theater of a celebrated artist whom The New York Times has dubbed “the Godfather of the American avant-garde.”
Presented in association with Ontological-Hysteric Theater.

PE2O

@ LEIMAY-CAVE | 58 GRAND ST. | BEDFORD L train
A new work, PE2O responds to the reality that humanity's half-century of plastic comfort and waste have changed the composition of the planets oceans. It explores a futuristic
earth in which all natural resources have expired and what remains is a world of plastic. The bodies on stage attempt to subsist in this environment, created by past generations’
desire for comfort and disposability. Through visual performance art, PE2O exists as an embodied shame pole—the objective of which is to harness the capacity for shame to incite critical thought in the spectator.
lady han
Lady Han is a post-Christmas-nearly-Valentine’s-Day, distinctly American take on a classical Noh drama about a prostitute going mad with loneliness.
With a skeleton faithfully based on the 17th century Japanese play by Zeami, and flesh that is all All-American, Lady Han is an entirely focused and otherworldly 20th century spin on a classic Noh play. Lady Han is a story of a prostitute who falls in love with a client, Yoshida, and pines for him all Fall and Winter. When he returns she has already gone mad and doesn’t recognize him. Using this poetic text and the conventions of classical Japanese drama, the production aims to lift our own culture — denim, Dolly, shopping carts, line dancing, plastic Christmas trees — to the height of elegance.
The Mistakes Madeline Made
BY ELIZABETH MERIWETHER
JANUARY 16-20, 2013 @ THE THEATRE AT THE 14TH STREET Y
Edna just graduated from college. Her paychecks come from a five-year-old. Her brother died in Iraq. She needs to bring him back to life.
'The Mistakes Madeline Made' is a darkly comedic look into figuring out the next step once you've graduated from college with a 'piece of paper' degree, all while being surrounded by the beast that is New York City. But more than that, it is a play about loss and mending as part of a generation that has grown up entirely in the presence of war. Edna's plan of attack? No more bathing.
