  • Night by Charles L Mee

  • Apr 26, 2015 at 4:00pm to May 10, 2015 at 1:00pm
  • Location: Theater for the New City
  • Description:

    The New Stage Theatre Company is proud to present the world premiere of "Night (Thyestes 2.0)", a movement theatre piece written by Charles L. Mee and directed by Ildiko Nemeth, with projection design and Visuals by Laia Cabrera and Isabelle Duverger. Inspired by Seneca's Thyestes, the piece combines sections of the classic tale with an equally dark modern vision. A whirlwind of vivid scenes bridges the torture, murder and cannibalism dogging ill-fated Tantalus to modern plagues both frightening and banal, from war crimes to YouTube vapidity. This world premiere performance brings a bold mix of standout projection design and visuals, choreography, costuming, lighting and sound to Mee’s rhapsodic vision, resulting in a night of wonderfully disorienting theatre.

    Directed by Ildiko Nemeth

    In collaboration with:
    Laia Cabrera & Isabelle Duverger - Visuals and Projection Design
    Federico Restrepo - Lighting
    Egle Paulauskaite - Costume
    Galway McCullough - Fight Choreography

  • Location: Opening inscription for any question
  • Description:

    Enjoy the dazzling offerings of this French Summer Camp in New York City with all of its creative and educational activities.

    Give your child the extraordinary gift of a non-stop, all day, absolute true immersion in the French language and culture, without leaving New York City. Children not only will speak French, they will also sing in French, act in French, create stories in French with a constant support in pronunciation, grammar and conjugation from our team. Through the use of fun and hands-on activities, children learn the language quickly without realizing they are learning. This model of learning has been proven efficient over the years with the children attending our BLEU BLANC ROUGE summer camp since it was created in 2010. Our team is professional and passionate. More than being teachers, our professionals include educators, artists and instructors with a drive for communicating their enthusiasm for the French language and the arts to the children.
