Manhattan Rep Presents WINTERFEST 2011

The Winter, Manhattan Repertory Theatre will be presenting 32 new plays featuring some of this country's finest playwrights, actors and directors in a theatrical celebration of new work - MRT'S WINTERFEST 2011. Tickets are $20. For reservations call: (646) 329-6588. Manhattan Repertory Theatre is located at 303 W. 42nd St. Third floor.

Featured in this year's WINTERFEST 2011 is THE PEOPLE IN MY HIPS by Ken Wolf, which is returning to Manhattan Rep for three very special performances : April 6, April 8 and April 9, all at 7 pm. The PEOPLE IN MY HIPS was hailed by Martin Denton of nytheatre.com as "unlike any theatre piece I have ever seen before." Lise Avery of Anything Goes!! Internationally Syndicated Radio said " THE PEOPLE IN MY HIPS is one of the most extraordinary pieces of theatre I have seen on or Off-Broadway in years!"

THE PEOPLE IN MY HIPS is the true story of how Ken Wolf developed severe PTSD and multiple personalities in his hips from training in YOGA and how, over three years, he cured himself. Thru candid narration, acted out scenes and real true to life video illustrating his crazy physical and emotional condition, Mr. Wolf takes the audience on an amazing journey of mystery and self-discovery, celebrating the innate power of possibility in us all.
