This junior practicum course uses experimental performance to tackle questions with notions of disruption and repair. Join us - you will be fed, seriously there will be Pizza and Donuts. Plus a surprise performance from ...

Today The Performing Difficult Questions presented their group midterm project. The theme was Interruption. Each student in this class has a sharp POV. There were disagreements , I mean we almost gave up - a couple times. And Yet, watching this group collaborate with each other as they navigated the tough parts of making a work - was so fulfilling. The audience was rapt and stayed after and gave excellent notes. Seriously - this work was so good they have decided to do it again. Stay tuned.

I just didnt take enough pics. Welp guess I gotta go back.

The final two plays of our Starr Reading Series are coming up this Monday, May 12 & next Sunday, May 18! Join us at the Starr at 7:30pm - readings are FREE! Read more about the plays & playwrights below or at link in bio 💫 I’m Not Even Half by Layla Khoshnoudi - Monday, May 12 I’m Not Even Half is the story of a woman’s road to recovery after a possibly-brain-altering car accident dovetails with the Women LIfe Freedom movement in Iran, inciting a period of intense self-reflection. The journey is darkly comedic and full of painful discoveries, as well as deeply uncomfortable admissions. A solo show. Hollow House by DN Bashir - Sunday, May 18 It’s a mid-19th century house, now a Hudson Valley farm-to-table restaurant. Liam and Madeline, former Brooklynites, own it. Keisha and Dante, Hudson Valley natives, work there. Zoe’s coming back—famous now. A riff on Variations on a Theme meets The Cherry Orchard, Hollow House fractures time, layering surreal interruptions with sharp commentary on history’s grip on the present. Talking animals, a prison break, and unspoken power dynamics erupt as fragile civility crumbles. Hollow House interrogates the stories we repeat and the systems that hold us captive.

GOOD PENNY began with an obsession—with money. The ache of not having enough. The loss of self in the chase. What happens when the holy dollar becomes our god? I turned to The Bacchae to explore it. Five interwoven tales. Myth. Madness. Corporate cubicles. And Dionysus, always watching. Grateful to have created this with @kw.wilks (a Bacchae master), @taralorenzen (dance magic!), and Bard’s brilliant students. A play about money, power, ecstasy, and release. Come feel the chaos. #GoodPennyPlay #TheBacchae #Dionysus #TheaterIsRitual #DNbashir #NewPlay #BardTheater 📸 @antarctic.depraved.mushroom Tix @fishercenterbard

A god walks into a boardroom. Everyone smiles, no one knows what’s coming. It’s expensive to underestimate the divine.
