SUMMARY:Inner and Outer Transformations: The Climate Crisis By Olive Toran
DESCRIPTION:“Inner and Outer Transformations: The Climate Crisis\,” by Olive Toran\, is an immersive multimedia exhibition that weaves fine art photography\, poetry\, live music\, and community climate engagement activities into a cohesive experience. At its core is Olive’s journey\, reflecting the synergy between personal healing and climate action.

This ongoing dialogue between self and environment suggests that nurturing personal well-being can spark systemic transformation. Exploring the multimedia displays invites visitors to reconnect with nature\, foster resilience against eco-paralysis\, and deepen their commitment to environmental and social change. \nRSVP HERE [free] \nSunday\, December 15th\, 2:00 pm-6:00 pm \n2-5pm Exhibit viewing and climate adaptation activity\,\n5 – 6pm live music and Q&A \n \nOlive is a force on the front line of climate action\, leveraging her 12 years of expertise as a Communication Specialist and Climate Adaptation researcher having worked in Africa\, Asia\, Europe and the Caribbean\, to drive meaningful change. Olive has dedicated herself to addressing the urgent challenges posed by human-induced climate change by crafting compelling narratives that amplify the urgency of the climate crisis and calling for collective knowledge and action to foster context specific\, people centered climate solutions. \nhttps://www.olivetoran.com/

SUMMARY:Yes\, But I Have To: A workshop reading presented by murmuration theatre co.
DESCRIPTION:A workshop reading presented by murmuration theatre co. Tickets are available here. \nYes\, But I Have To is the story of a young couple\, Grafton and Emily\, who must navigate each other\, and themselves\, under claustrophobic circumstances. Something has gone horribly wrong. We know only that there has been fear and travel and loneliness and death — and now winter. Temporarily stranded in an abandoned cabin in the mountains\, Grafton and Emily are in the process of being distilled down to their barest selves. In examining the repercussions of trauma and its consequences on relationships\, the play raises the most universal of questions. Who are we\, exactly? Are we immutable? Can we be reimagined? How do we cope with sadness and fear and anxiety? Yes But I Have To is a unique theatrical contribution to the conversation about post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and\, as such\, both topical and timely. \n“I wrote this show because I was interested in the processes that someone\, or in this case a couple\, goes through to deal with their traumatic grief and sadness\,” says Janney. “I wanted to put a microscope up to the panic and pain\, seeing what comes out the other side. It was an exercise that resulted in something that was really personally powerful and I’m hoping that by sharing these characters’ experiences\, the audience will feel that as well.” \nAddison Janney is a playwright living in Brooklyn\, NY.  He has written\, directed\, and produced original works in both New York City and Washington\, DC. \nMurmuration Theatre Company is an independent arts collaborative dedicated to discovering and investing in new theatrical talent — from emerging playwrights\, to unrepresented actors\, to early-stage and visionary directors\, to early-career technical and production staff. \nTheatre is an enormously impactful tool for change; Murmuration is dedicated to regularly producing work that unpacks issues of social and/or political relevance. We encourage our creative teams to expand the impact of productions beyond the stage.

SUMMARY:The Fish Queen of the Gowanus Canal: An On-Water Musical [Saturday]
DESCRIPTION:The Fish Queen of the Gowanus Canal\nby Wes Braver\, additional book by Rebecca Slaman\nProduced by Wes Braver\, Joseph Alexiou & Brad Vogel in partnership with the Gowanus Dredgers \nJoin the Gowanus Dredgers for this one-of-a-kind theater experience! We have two tiers of tickets\, from the shore or via canoe\, where you’ll get to paddle around our performers on floating stages. This is a show not to be missed.\n🎟️ GET YOUR TICKETS NOW 🎟️ \nImage by Melissa Tomczak\nIn nature\, ecologists can assess the health of an ecosystem by studying its waterways. This show explores the toxic culture of America by focusing on one of its most toxic waterways: the Gowanus Canal. \nRumors have been spreading of a superorganism lurking beneath the murky water…a monster made out of toxic industrial runoff and human sewage\, that holds all the memories of everyone whose waste has ever gone into the water… \nThe Fish Queen tells the story of a place polluted by violence\, from the first Dutch settlers who displaced the native Lenape tribes who fished in the Gowanus creek\, to the Battle of Brooklyn fought on its shores\, to the police who cleared out poor Irish tenements\, to the mafia bosses who used the canal as a body-dumping ground. The Fish Queen\, like the canal she lives in\, is full of contradictions: the multi-headed being\, played by eight actors\, will sing funny songs\, sad songs\, angry songs\, weighty songs and petty songs. \nAs many of us who live\, work\, and maybe even paddle on the Gowanus know\, beauty still can thrive here between the cracks. This show celebrates that while wrestling with questions of how to love and gather ourselves against the forces that keep the toxic cycles going. \nCome see this once in a lifetime world premiere production in the most fitting place imaginable: In the f*cking Gowanus Canal. (This is a PG-13 show for dirty language\, which only feels appropriate for the subject matter) \nIf raining or threatening weather (high winds\, lightning) by 5:30pm we may cancel.
