SUMMARY:Amanda Pascali
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS– \n$35\, General Admission \nCafé table seating  \nAmanda Pascali embodies the complexity of modern identity. Born to a mother from Cairo who grew up in France and an Italian father raised in Romania\, she's a mixed-race\, bilingual Gen Z troubadour perpetually caught between worlds. Quoting poet Ijeoma Umebinyuo\, she says\, "I'm often 'too foreign for here\, too foreign for home\, and never enough for both.'" Rather than lamenting this displacement\, Pascali has transformed it into her artistic superpower.  \nAs the rising voice of America's most ethnically diverse generation of young people\, singer-songwriter Amanda Pascali writes music that speaks to the experience of growing up as a first-generation American. After her songs went viral on social media\, she amassed hundreds of thousands of fans around the globe. Now\, her long-awaited new record\, Roses and Basil (a collection of Sicilian-English translations and original music produced by Robert Ellis\,) has been praised by NPR\, the Bluegrass Situation\, and numerous international outlets.  \n\nSponsored by

SUMMARY:New York Theatre Workshop’s Mind the Gap\, Intergenerational Performance Program
DESCRIPTION:Please note: the cast of Friday’s performance of Mind the Gap may have been exposed to Covid. All performers will have tested before the show\, will be symptom-free\, and will be masked whenever not onstage. Since performers will be unmasked onstage\, we will be encouraging audience members to wear masks themselves during the show. Masks will be available as you enter\, or you are welcome to bring your own. \nPublic performance on Friday\, June 27 at 7pm\nAPPLY TO PROGRAM RESERVE TICKETS \n\nMind the Gap is a free intergenerational theatre program in which youth [14-21] and elders [60+] interview each other and collectively create a performance piece inspired by each other’s life stories. Mind the Gap’s primary goal is to use theatre as a creative tool to increase empathy and communication between generations. The workshop will culminate with a public presentation in which the collaborative work is performed by the participants. No theatre experience is required to participate in the program. \n \nYouth stipends are $250 per person.\n \n\n\n\nProgram Goals\nThrough the workshop participants are able to: \n\nInvestigate\, listen and empathize with someone of another generation\, while using playwriting as a tool to understand and represent their unique experience\nBroaden their perspective\, see the other generation in a new light\, and take on the task of telling someone else’s story with respect and understanding\nShare their stories and ultimately see them interpreted through another’s eyes making meaning out of their personal narratives and gaining insights into their own lives\n\nImportant Criteria\n\n\n\n\nDesire to share\, listen and create – sharing your stories with someone of another generation and giving them permission to use your stories as inspiration for a play.\nDesire to bring your curiosity\, stories\, experiences\, creativity\, listening ears\, and willingness to share at every session.\nDesire to perform and act both individually as well as within an ensemble.\nDesire to collaborate generously and with an open mind.\nDesire and ability to attend every session. Since most of the work that we will do together will be in partner groups\, potential participants with fewer conflicts will be prioritized over those with more conflicts.\n\nThings to Remember\n\n\n\nIt is important to note that Mind the Gap is not an acting class; performance is merely the tool through which we mind the gap between generations.\nMind the Gap is not focused exclusively on the past. During the program participants explore the past\, present and the future. However\, Mind the Gap is not a documentary or verbatim theatre program. Intergenerational interviews are used as inspiration\, not as the sole material from which artistic content is created. Participants are treated as artists.\nMind the Gap is not a mentoring program. All participants are seen as equal in the process. We value everyone’s stories\, input and life experiences. At New York Theatre Workshop we believe that we always have something to learn from each other\, regardless of age.\nAlthough we encourage everyone to push past their comfort zones\, we do not demand that anyone share anything that they feel is too personal or too private. On that note\, if participants share something with their partner that they wish not to have shared or written about\, participants always have the right to ask their partner(s) to exclude any information from the artistic piece(s).\n\n\n		\n		\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				Teaching artist Noor Hamdi (they/them)\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				Teaching artist Marty Chandler (they/them)\n				\n			\n		\n\nLearn more about New York Theatre Workshop at nytw.org. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n[/fusion_text][/fusion_builder_column][/fusion_builder_row][/fusion_builder_container]
