Photo Flash: First Look at Buran Theatre's T.B. SHEETS at The Tank

The Tank presents the world premiere of T.B. SHEETS written by Adam R. Burnett and directed by lisa nevada & Adam R. Burnett. Produced by Buran Theatre as part of The Tank's Flint & Tinder series, T.B. SHEETS is running for a limited engagement through Saturday, May 27 at the The Jeffrey and Paula Gural Theatre at the A.R.T./New York Theatres (502 West 53rd Street, between 10th & 11th Avenues). BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!

Set in a tuberculosis sanatorium on a remote mountainside (not unlike Magic Mountain), a community of terminally ill Ones transcend to an order of living saints and build a spaceship to escape their physical ailments. This dizzying and iconoclastic new work celebrates the power and beauty of the fragile body and the multiplicity and fluidity of identity.

The cast features Brady Blevins (Nightmares with Buran Theatre), Danny Brave (the Brooklyn collective Switch n' Play), Maybe Burke (The Trans Literacy Project with Honest Accomplice Theatre), Nehessaiu deGannes (Equus with Alec Baldwin), Yuki Kawahisa (Temporary Distortion's Amerikana Kamikaze, PS122), Daniel Nelson (Richard Foreman's Idiot Savant, Public Theater), Colleen O'Neill (TWEED Fractured Classicks), Lori Elizabeth Parquet (The Providence of Neighboring Bodies, Ars Nova), Tina Shepard (founding member, The Talking Band), and Moira Stone (The Pig at 3LD).

The design team includes Nicholas Kostner (scenic design); Jeanette Oi-Suk Yew & Masha Tsimring (lighting, video and puppetry design); Baille Younkman (costume design). The original sound and music is created by Broken Chord. The choreography is by lisa nevada. The Production Stage Manager is Kathryn Sykes.
