NY Theatre week of July 29th |
The symphony of New York plays as each of us... the players on this grand stage dance to its steamy summer rhythms. The sounds of raindrops on our window, build slowly to a crescendo of passing sirens, horns and fade again to the hum of traffic and the rushing clip clop of business shoes and high heels. Together, the endless movements of our fair city’s song, pump into us, flowing from our ears directly into our hearts, fueling our energy, pushing our boundaries and creating the pace for which we New Yorkers have become famous.
Look around you. Watch as your fellow dancers bop to their own rhythm, falling into syncopation with the world around them and then back into their own solo. The tidal give and take creates the mood, subtext and backdrop for our life today, tomorrow and tomorrow. This week, MAMA asks, “What will your contribution be?” Rushing forth too quickly creates a pile up, but staying only in the back does the same. Find your flow. Places everyone! Go to the Theatre!
Love,
MAMA

In God's Hat examines the extremes of humanity. The love of family and the contempt for it. Roy and Mitch are estranged brothers. Prison bars and a nefarious history have kept them apart for nearly a decade. On the day of Mitch's release he is shocked to see Roy waiting for him. But what exactly are Roy's intentions? Together they travel down a desolate road stopping at the only lodging around; a fleabag motel. It is here something and someone confronts them that is as equally damaging as their past. But is it a set up or coincidence? And how will they respond this time? Tension manifests itself through out darkly comical situations. But in the end the brothers must confront both the present and the past. Where some secrets are revealed new ones must be kept.
