This came to us from Paul Makovsky, the Editorial Director of Metropolis magazine. And we have to admit, this is one of the more fascinating uses of public space for performance we've come across in a while.
Theatre for One, a new project of the Times Square Alliance, the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council and the DCA among others, is "a portable performing arts space for one performer and one audience member, that turns public events into private acts, making each performance a singularly intimate exchange." Award-winning set designer Christine Jones (Spring Awakening, American Idiot), in collaboration with design studio Lot/ek, has devised a space for a one-on-one audience to performer show; theater, dance, poetry, magic and music. If you're in Duffy Square between May 14 and May 23, check it out. Theatre for One is on a first-come, first-serve basis.
