Anti-Gone by Needs More Work Productions is a bold new adaptation of the beloved classic. Audiences take on an active part in determining the outcome of the thrilling drama, utilizing the most popular invention of Ancient Greece - the democratic vote. Is a happy ending for Antigone’s story possible? Will we be able to find what has not been found in 2,500 years- a solution? "Giving Antigone a sense of possibility after all this time".
The Tragedy of Coriolanus
Location: Dixon Place
Dates: April 25 at 7pm, April 26 at 2pm and 7pm
THE TRAGEDY OF CORIOLANUS tells the story of Caius Martius Coriolanus, a Roman general who—caught between duty and desire—faces exile from the country he has been raised to fight for. A sweeping political statement, sweat-soaked war play, and pulsating revenge thriller, this lush and contemporary reimagining explores the passions battling within one of Shakespeare's most complex antiheroes.
Those Who Remained
Location: La MaMa Experimental Theatre Club, The Club
Dates: May 8 - 10 at 7:30pm, May 11 at 3pm, May 15-17 at 7:30pm, and May 18 at 3pm
In this transformative multimedia solo show, Sophia Gutchinov explores the profound depths of love through a deeply personal lens of Indigenous ceremony and modern dating. Drawing from her unique Italian-Mongolian heritage, she weaves a narrative that bridges cultural divides, reflecting her background of a Buddhist father and Catholic mother.
The performance incorporates projections, comedy, and spoken word, creating an immersive experience that confronts personal roots and identity. Collaborating with artists from diverse backgrounds – including AAPI, Latin, Black, LGBTQ+, and Kalmyk tribal performers – Gutchinov examines her family’s complex history, including her grandparents’ escape from WWII, her parent’s nomadic journey to…New Jersey, and her recent journey to her father’s homeland, all viewed through an intersection of acting and neuroscience.
