FREE and open to the Public

Performance Space 122 is pleased to announce the premiere of a new program titled “Conversations with Culture,” a series of public panel discussions engaging non-performing arts community members in a dialogue about the art, politics, and life that happens on our stages.  These discussions endeavor to reinsert performance into the cultural, economic, and environmental debates coursing through contemporary society, from which it has recently largely been excluded.  On October 20th, PS122 will inaugurate this series with the panel discussion “Contemporary Performance and God,” a debate about the relationship between performance and contemporary religious practice.

Participants include
JAY WEGMAN, Director of the Abrons Art Center and ordained Reverend
MORGAN THORSON, choreographer: HEAVEN premiering at Performance Space 122 on October 25th
JOHN MERZ, Diocese of New York Episcopal Chaplain to NYU
