Spring Forward with "Roots & New Ground"

It's almost the end of our winter blues in Brooklyn as the sun begins to melt the snow and spring slowly thrives forward, giving us a new season. It's also the best part of year for us because it's the most creative time to collaborate with different artists and prepare for our spring production, "Roots & New Ground". We're very excited to showcase new works by David Fernandez, Michael "Big Mike" Fields, Emily Oleson, Matthew Powell, and a revival by Artistic Director Lynn Parkerson.
