Williamsburg, Brooklyn: A land where the whiskey is always flowing. Here people live in blissful peace under the tenure of Whiskey Pants, their beloved Mayor. Since "The Event", they've found it's dangerous to dream, leaving most to prefer to live their days in a drunken stupor. But now, their way of life is threatened by a weary wanderer from the outside world who seeks to sober their perpetual hangover by aligning with a young ambitious painter who faces her own life-altering choice: Give up on her dreams and embrace a carefree life...or lose her father, the powerful Mayor of Williamsburg. Will they ruin everything? Or will they discover that in Williamsburg, it's easier to drink? From The New York Innovative Theater Award nominated team behind "Fatty Fatty No Friends" comes a new musical about hope, family, whiskey, and reconciling the dreamer within.
Created by Christian De Gré, Joseph Reese Anderson, and Serrana Gay, Whiskey Pants had it's world premiere in 2015 at New York's FRIGID Festival where it was the sold-out hit of the festival, receiving three awards, including audience favorite. This new environmental production is a part of SubletSeries@HERE: a curated rental program, which provides artists with subsidized space and equipment, as well as technical support.
