Performance | [el] Living: Visual Poetry, Live Music, & Heavy Scenes
[el] LIVING is a visual theater piece that plays with image, movement, objects, and live music to create a fragile story in which dark topics and heavy scenes go hand in hand with humor and visual poetry. Two twin sisters and a man died a long time ago. Now they share a living room, unaware of their own passing and unaware of each other. Their bodies have been acting out the actions they know in a loop, deconstructing them to the point where they are empty and senseless. They are not ready—but death doesn’t want to wait any longer. In the process, we have played with the concepts of life, death, the passing of time and the joy of being alive, aspiring to share with the audience moments of profound humanity, fear, rage, and tenderness. For this project, twelve artists of different generations, six nationalities, and four different schools come together, offering their bodies and their own stories to this truly collaborative theater piece. Written by Pau Llauger.

Party | Artistic Celebration of Celine Dion's Album, Falling Into You
Playwright and raconteur Inua Ellams invites you to his Rhythm And Poetry (R.A.P.) Party, featuring ten of New York's most gifted poets and spoken word artists in celebration of Celine Dion's breakout LP Falling Into You (1996). It's a voice that the world knows and the album that put her in the spotlight forever. Celine Dion's breakout LP Falling Into You (1996) blends pop, rock, soul, and gospel into a richly cinematic sound. Featuring unforgettable songs like Diane Warren and David Foster's "Because You Loved Me" and Jim Steinman's "It's All Coming Back to Me Now", the album acted as a showcase for Dion's dramatic emotional range and razor-sharp technical acumen. Falling ultimately sold over 32 million copies worldwide, won Dion Grammys for both Album of the Year and Best Pop Album, cemented her as the definitive voice of 1990s pop, and granted her undying status as a beloved diva and queer icon. Honoring the 30th anniversary of the seminal album, the Ellams hosts this party with artists sharing new works inspired by Dion's music and impact. Enjoy a nostalgia-filled night of power ballads, lyric poems, and a celebration of the transformative power of music. There are two ways to access this event: 1. General Admission, first-come first-served. Just show up! 2. Fast Track opening the Monday before the event at noon.
