Immersive Political Comedy CONVENTION To Get World Premiere At Brooklyn's Irondale
After three years of development, beginning immediately after the 2016 Presidential election that left the democratic constituency of the United States in a state of shock, the new immersive comedy Convention will make its world premiere this summer at Brooklyn's very own Irondale (85 S. Oxford Street, Brooklyn, NY 11217), located just steps from BAM. Convention will begin performances Friday, June 7, and play a strictly limited engagement through Saturday, June 29. An opening night has been set for Thursday, June 13 at 8:00pm.
R & J & Z to Run 4/1-18 at the New Ohio Theatre
What if two of literature's most famous lovers got a second chance? R & J & Z starts with Act V of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet and continues on, as the young couple navigates a world in which death isn't necessarily the end. Written in verse and set against the historical backdrop of Verona's plague, R & J & Z (the 'z' stands for zombies), throws old and new characters together over the course of an apocalyptic and action-packed 24 hours. Equally inspired by Shakespeare and contemporary zombie films, R & J & Z pushes the boundaries of theatrical humor and horror. When everyone is dead and rising from the graves, the rules no longer apply.
