Founded in 2004 by Kara Feely and Travis Just (director/writer/designer and composer/musician/director respectively... as well as married cat owners), the performances of Object Collection upset our notions of space, time, narrative, sound, and just about every base element of time-based work that we think we know...

Brilliant young filmmaker and animator Joshua Frankel has created a new animated short called "Plan of the City," premiering this Friday at Le Poisson Rouge. It features the architecture of New York City, with the NOW Ensemble performing alongside the Empire State...

When I was 19 and 20 I spent two summers working with a Bushwick-based theater company. What was then their rehearsal space, and the residence for some company members, is now known to some of you as The Bushwick Starr. This was back when the L was unreliable,...
