| Titus X at 217 E 42nd |
Producers
Joe DeFeo and Braden Chapman present the New York premier of Titus X,
written by Shawn Northrip, directed by Peter Sanfilippo.
Northrip, who received his M.F.A. in Musical Theatre Writing from
Tisch, decided to set a Shakespeare play to the music from the DC
underground. Titus seemed the perfect choice because it contained the
perfect balance of politics and unapologetic violence. This
tragic-comedy, which is as much concert as it is theatrical show,
follows the plot of Shakespeare's original revenge play, while reveling
in its own absurdity.
Titus X has been developed at the Kennedy Center 2002 Page to Stage
Festival, at Catholic University, at the 23rd Annual Washington New
Play Festival, and performed in production at Source Theatre in
Washington, DC.
Cast:
Amanda Bond, Bat Parnas, Benjamin Pryor, Joseph Pindelski, Peter
Schuyler, T-Boy
Tickets: $22
Late showings: $15, Saturdays only

| Housewarming Party at The Tank
Annex - 208 W.37th |
Thanks
to a generous donation of space from Chashama, The Tank is proud to
announce the launch of The Tank Annex. For six weeks in November and
December, The Tank staff will be operating an additional storefront
space in midtown while continuing its programming on 42nd street. The
Tank Annex will act as a temporary home for emerging artists and
performers to create exciting, site-specific and interactive events, a
space to spread out and generate cutting edge work. For more
information on scheduling, visit www.thetanknyc.org/annex.
To inaugurate this new space, we’re throwing the TANK ANNEX
HOUSEWARMING PARTY this Sunday! There will be music and juggling and
cake and ways for you to help us settle in (like painting the walls and
building with legos). If you like to do things in front of other
people, or near other people, this is your chance. Recite a poem, take
an exit poll, or teach someone how to dance.
FREE!!! + cheap booze/nonbooze

Our fall benefit will finance A.R.E.A. (Accessing Real Estate for
the Arts),
our major initiative to create temporary arts spaces in vacant real
estate in New York City. This is a major financial campaign, which will
allow chashama to acquire new temporary vacancies, rehabilitate our
current spaces and provide additional resources for the artists of New
York City. We have recently received a contribution of more than 90,000
square feet of space from the real estate community including, Jeffrey
Gural of Newmark and Co., and Bruce Ratner of Forest City Ratner.
Through this unique access to real estate, chashama enacted the
A.R.E.A. Program. A.R.E.A. has transformed unused space into multi-arts
complexes and opened galleries, theaters, and artist studios out of 12
different donated properties in the past 9 years. These temporary space
donations have enabled us to provide free and highly subsidized space
to more than 3,000 new, emerging and established artists.
