Musical | LIBERTY Or JUST US, A City Parks Story


LIBERTY Or JUST US, A City Parks Story is an oratorio that honors NYC parks for being sites of activism for many 20th and 21st century progressive causes, from the Triangle Shirtwaist protests to Occupy Wall Street. It revisits these movements through the eyes of a contemporary Parks Manager in songs featuring him and the multi-ethnic, multi-abled ensemble. The piece celebrates the idea that the USA can be a country of all its people, that moral aspiration can be reinvented to harness energy to overcome our problems, and that our vision can focus on dignity rather than power, equality rather than wealth and solidarity rather than competition. Written and Directed by Crystal Field, Composed by Joseph Vernon Banks.
