The Assembly's THAT POOR DREAM Opens at The Tank Tonight
The Tank, a non-profit arts presenter located in the heart of midtown, is proud to present The Assembly's That Poor Dream, a new play set on a train traveling from New York City to Fairfield, CT. Following a successful run at The New Ohio Theatre in the fall of 2014, the company has continued development work on the piece and will be performing an updated version. Inspired by Charles Dickens' Great Expectations, the work unites worlds divided by geography, privilege, and time. Drawing on the company's own complex relationship to class identity and economic disparity in American society, The Assembly's newest creation explores how class defines and separates us, and how our shared humanity might bring us closer together.
