What's 'Out There' this year
January 8, 2015 at 7:21PM
Jan. 8-10: "The Evening," by Richard Maxwell and the New York City Players. Maxwell takes a minimalist approach to a story of three people who talk about their desires and dreams, all the while wasting their time in a dive bar.
Jan. 15-17: "Still Standing You," by Pieter Ampe and Guilherme Garrido. This duo explores the line between playfulness, slapstick and violence in a vulnerable and raw performance. Contains nudity.
Jan. 22-24: "Cineastas" by Mariano Pensotti. Four filmmakers are deeply affected by their own process. A split set allows us to see the juxtaposition of real life and the film set. In Spanish, with English subtitles.
Jan. 29-31: Lucidity Suitcase Intercontinental + Wilhelm Bros. and Co. A visual and sonically complex opera centered on the final days of Edgar Allan Poe.
