A New Season Coming
We're back in the studio creating several projects.
The Writers Project is developing five new plays by teen writers tied to the history and people of the Lower East Side. We are still interested in young composers, ages 13-19, who might like to join this project. Contact us at info@downtownart.org if you're interested.
BOWERY WARS, PART 2 is also in rehearsal. This is the conclusion of our musical epic of the Lower East Side, circa 1903, and two young immigrants who are caught up in political and gang battles of the time - a revised version of Shakespeare's 'Romeo and Juliet.' Written by Ryan Gilliam, composed by Michael Hickey, premiering in May 2012 on the streets of the Lower East Side.
