Park

If a stranger were to approach you in public, would you acknowledge them, try to remain invisible, or perhaps pull out your phone and record them? Park is a devised movement piece exploring the ways people share public space. 5-10 movers have a day at the park and audiences get to people watch like they've never done before as the mundane turns to the surreal. Park uses clowning and contact dance modes of performance to explore the ways we wish to see, been seen as well as hide in plain sight.

The Exponential Festival:

~ A pleasure, a mess, a thrill, and a dream. ~​

Exponential is a 501c3 January performance festival for NYC-based emerging artists working in experimental performance. The participants in this multi-artist, multi-venue festival are committed to ecstatic creativity in the face of commercialism. Exponential is driven by inclusiveness and a diversity of artists, forms, and ideas coupled with utopian resource-sharing, mentoring and the championing of risky, rigorous work in eclectic fields.

COVID-19 Policy:

All attendees and artists of the in-person performance will be required to display proof of full COVID vaccination before being admitted to the space, either by showing a vaccination record (vaccination card) at least two weeks out from the final dose of an approved vaccine, or by using New York's free Excelsior Pass service.

Patrons will also be required to wear masks while indoors at all times.
