Felice Lesser Dance Company
LAB 101:
Open Rehearsal of excerpts from Lesser’s multi-media work, Funding the Arts
Funding the Arts is Felice Lesser’s “living cartoon,” a spy-spoof about two rogue ex-CIA agents, and their KGB counterparts, who overthrow corrupt governments around the world, using the booty to fund their first love – their ballet company. Returning to the United States post 9/11, they find themselves totally unprepared for the realities of running a “non-profit” arts organization. Looking for ways to keep their company afloat, they attempt to save the world from their arch-enemy (not to mention saving dance as an art form, as an apathetic public stays home and surfs the internet).

For Rent


The Kupferberg Center and LPAC present: 



Written by Ozen Yula
Directed by Handan Ozbilgin

In "For Rent," poor, rural teenagers come to the big city to find wealth and prosperity. But in the dark, dangerous public parks of this cosmopolitan city, they are instead led into prostitution and violence. This stylistically innovative and vocally stunning play from acclaimed Turkish playwright, Ozen Yula, explores the criminal underworld of modern-day Istanbul through the desperate lives of the young people who flock there.

Inside scoop on ONE ARMED MAN

I Dreamed I Saw Joe Hill’s Lover, Last Night: A novelist wants to unravel the mystery of Joe Hill’s lover, a woman who was the alibi in the trial of a labor organizer and songwriter who was executed by a Utah firing squad in 1915. With his research hitting a dead end, he finds answers coming to him in dreams. Visited by visions of folk heroes, floating pies and strange, masked figures, his obsession may lead him to an answer—or maybe just an attractive Red Herring.
