Our adventure starts on the Upper West Side, home to beloved and prestigious arts institutions like Lincoln Center and The New York City Ballet. As pandemic restrictions lifted, many institutions celebrated their long-awaited return to the stage with traditional stories. While we crave the familiar, we also recognize that we've grown and changed a lot in the past year. As the curtain rises and shows begin once again, we take a look at how audiences and performers are returning the stage.. and start to imagine where those stages could exist outside the walls of a theatre.
💠Provocations: How do you think the performing arts industry will rebuild itself? What does it mean to perform? Where might stages exist in our everyday lives?
