SummerStage Presents: The New York Neo-Futurists Present Too Much Light Makes The Baby Go Blind

2014-08-15T00:00:00.000

20:00

22:00

<strong>The New York Neo-Futurists</strong>&nbsp;are an ensemble of dynamic writer/director/performers who are best known for their critically acclaimed, energetic signature show of original short plays,&nbsp;<em>Too Much Light Makes the Baby Go Blind</em>. Once called &quot;The Snapchat of Theater&quot;, with its ever-changing &quot;menu&quot; of plays, <em>TML</em> is a race against the clock to perform 30 plays in 60 minutes in an order determined by the audience! All our plays are presented from a perspective of absolute honesty, do not ask the audience to &quot;suspend&nbsp;their&nbsp;disbelief&quot;, and often include audience interactions. A non-illusory collage of the comic and tragic, the political and personal, the visceral and experimental,&nbsp;<em>Too Much Light</em>&nbsp;endeavors to tell dynamic stories while embracing chance, change, and chaos. Developed out of a format that has been a success in Chicago since 1988, the Neo-Futurists put down roots in NYC in the mid 90&rsquo;s and have been growing strong ever since. After a grand re-birth in the city in 2004, NYNF has created over 3300 new plays for&nbsp;<em>Too Much Light,&nbsp;</em>as well as&nbsp;many longer form works, and continues to present award-winning, topical and vital work every weekend at the Kraine Theater and around the New York independent theater community. Sometimes true life really is stranger than fiction...&nbsp;

The New York Neo-Futurists are an ensemble of dynamic writer/director/performers who are best known for their critically acclaimed show, Too Much Light Makes the Baby Go Blind.

Exhibition by Ruth Marshall: Closely Knit: A Textile Analysis of Animals

2014-06-12T00:00:00.000

09:00

17:00

<p> <em>Closely Knit: A Textile Analysis of Animals</em> by Ruth Marshall brings attention to illegal wildlife trade and species loss in a way that unites a widened audience of scientists, art enthusiasts and the general public. Her life-size, knitted textile pelts of tigers, leopards, coral snakes and Australian marsupials exemplify how artisan goods have the potential to have higher commercial value than poached skins on the black market. Her textiles reinforce the ideology that support for conservation and culture is a more sustainable, viable and lucrative endeavor than the illegal wildlife trade.&nbsp;<br /> <br /> She has conducted research at the American Museum of Natural History, Melbourne Museum and the Berlin Zoo. For <em>Closely Knit</em>, Marshall studied Askai, Central Park Zoo&rsquo;s six-year-old male snow leopard and created a new knitted work based on his distinctive coat. &nbsp;The exhibition is staged in the historic Arsenal building, which housed a menagerie of gifted animals on the basement level from 1859 to 1871, and was the first home of the American Museum of Natural History from 1869 to 1877 before it moved to its current home on Manhattan&rsquo;s West Side.</p>
