The free events will kick off at the Fort Hamilton Distillery.
Dialogue with Three Chords (D3C) is BACK live and in-person, with the help of their friends BrooklynONE (bkONE) Productions, to present two holiday events for grown-ups at Industry City: THE MARI LWYD, an immersive theatrical pub crawl on December 14 at 7pm, followed by a reading of THE KRAMPUS, a wonderfully naughty play with songs on December 21 at 8pm
Both events are FREE, though registration is recommended, and kick off at the Fort Hamilton Distillery, at 68 34th St Building 6, 2nd Floor Brooklyn, NY 11232
For THE MARI LWYD pub crawl, actors will lead a group of ticket holders through Industry City, stopping to perform at The Fort Hamilton Distillery, The Frying Pan, and, finally, Barrow's Intense Tasting Room for a short play and drink specials.
THE MARI LWYD is inspired by a Welsh tradition where revelers go door-to-door with a horse skull costume on Christmas Eve, challenging homeowners to a contest of rhyme. If The Revelers win, they are given a stiff drink to ward off the cold and strengthen their skills for the next house.
THE KRAMPUS, a naughty musical play about families of chance, families of choice, childhood monsters and the joy of new traditions, has been performed for over ten years throughout Brooklyn. In THE KRAMPUS, a circle of friends seeks to banish holiday stress as they gather at a bar to drink and commiserate. They sing songs, crack jokes and tell stories. The lighthearted banter soon takes on a more personal tone, as the group reflect on their own childhoods and memories of the Krampus story.
THE MARI LWYD features: Jessica Bathurst, Anthony DeVito, Simon Fraser, and Steven Weinblatt. Musical accompaniment by: The Pigeon Pack.
THE KRAMPUS features: Jessica Bathurst, John Caliendo, Yuliya Donovan, Emmanuel Elpenord, Sadie Keljikian, Anthony Marino, Cristina Pitter, and Mickey Ryan. Musical accompaniment by: Michael LoPorto.
