FAB NYC Proclaims Festival Was A Success

The Fourth Arts Block in Manhattan jump-started this year's fall season with the FAB! Festival & Block Party showing off some of the best in East Village music, theater, and dance.

The Operating Theater made a small splash at the festival by sharing a song from their upcoming play, TRANSATLANTICA. Opening this Friday, TRANSATLANTICA is a lunatic fable about the denial of death, by award winning playwright Kenny Finkle.
