PopUP Theatrics new show, BROKEN CITY: Harlem recently sold out six performances at The Harlem Arts Festival. An extended run will take place between June 29th - July 11th in Harlem.

BROKEN CITY: Harlem was conceived by PopUP Theatrics partners, Ana Margineanu, and Tamilla Woodard in collaboration with playwright Peca Stefan. This production highlights artists from the National Black Theatre, Liberation Theatre, HARLEM9, and Harlem Natives.

BROKEN CITY: Harlem is a love letter to the city. Real life and theatre collide in this "street immersive" that invites 9 audience members on a one of a kind excursion. BROKEN CITY: Harlem dissolves the boundaries between audience and performer and blurs the border between the street and the stage. Audiences 'choose their own adventure' as they navigate the broken trails of stories left behind by the people and places of this fabled neighborhood of renaissance, history and heritage.
