Weekend #1 at La Mama- SOLD OUT!
Thursday, March 18, 2010
Free Screening of Alessio Cappelletti's Short, "Broken Crayons"
The film was shot on Super 16mm and a special scene was done on pro 8mm (a funky format where you cut and load 16mm film into Super 8 cartridges). It then went through a 2K Digital intermediate for color grading and some minor but cool special effects.
The film runs 34min, then there will probably be a Q&A after, followed by a mingling hour with FREE WINE (Ages 21+). THIS WILL ALSO BE A GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR NETWORKING!
Try to arrive 10 to 15 min early and if you could PLEASE CONFIRM IF YOU ARE COMING-IT MAKES THE WINE BUYING EASIER, ALTHOUGH YOU ARE MORE THAN WELCOME TO COME THE NIGHT OF THE SHOWING!

La Mama e.t.c. Presents: A Mind the Art Anthology!
A Mind The Art Anthology features 3 distinct works encompassing everything from musical theater to comedic looks at philosophy to political performance art. These pieces are sure to entertain, while also challenging the status quo and rebelling against your reality.
What If? - Broadway. Revised, Retuned, and Remixed.
Fridays, March 26 & April 2 @ 10pm
What if La Vie Boheme was laced with a hip-hop track and a dope lyricist? What if The Sound of Music was belted out by a 1920s jazz vocalist? What if The Impossible Dream dripped with sultry Latin flavor? These are just a few of the musical mash-ups you will find in this innovative concert that dares to redefine musical styles and genres. Join award-winning musicians, composers, and singers as we ask the question ‘What If?’
DIE - Their fate. Your hands… Roll the DIE.
Saturdays, March 27 & April 3 @ 10pm
Imagine, if you will, a world unencumbered by the stress of decision-making, a world where you never have to wonder if you made the ‘right' decision. In this existential comedy, two roommates make this a reality by letting the roll of a DIE decide for them. But is life really carefree when the responsibility is left up to chance? Watch as this duo embarks on comedic misadventures, all of which are orchestrated by YOU. That’s right, because the DIE is in YOUR hands. With 36 possible endings, you won’t see the same show twice. So take a chance.
Under the Veil: Being Muslim & Non-Muslim in post 9/11 America
Sundays, March 28 & April 4 @ 5:30pm
Under the Veil is a provocative piece of political theater that investigates the stereotypes and racism imposed upon the Muslim-American community in New York City society. Through drama, comedy, poetry, and music, we confront the issues of race, loyalty, and identity, challenging you to question your own religious fear and misunderstandings as we take you Under the Veil.
