Superstitions have always been deeply ingrained in world history, even today when objective evidence is highly valued. Nearly all cultures, persons, in nearly all times, have held serious beliefs concerning methods of warding off ill or bringing good, foretelling the future, and healing and preventing sickness and accidents.Visitors to NIGHTMARE: SUPERSTITIONS enter a surreal version of The Bloomingdale Lunatic Asylum, one of America's first psychiatric hospitals, now defunct. They are visiting the schizophrenic/manic-depressive wing that specializes in extreme paranoia. Its patients have voluntarily admitted themselves seeking protection from the danger they perceive is awaiting them because they broke a superstition. They feel that locked safe away between padded walls will keep anything bad from happening. They can be relieved of this burden and set free if the patrons break the superstition and accept the bad luck themselves.To buy tickets visit www.nightmarenewyork.com or call 212.352.3101.
