CHURCH: THEATER PIECE AT BAX

See a workshop performance of CHURCH, a theater piece developed at BAX that is having its world premiere at PS 122.

Young Jean Lee’s Theater Company

Friday & Saturday, March 30-31, 2007 at BAX. 421 Fifth Avenue, 718-832-0018

“Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give
you rest.” Singing, dancing, and preaching create a joyous and
breathtakingly beautiful experience in Young Jean Lee?s CHURCH. Lee is a Theater
Artist in Residence at Brooklyn Arts Exchange. With CHURCH, her
signature unpredictability puts the religious and non-religious alike under
the spell in a way that defies and tests the beliefs of both. The
performance marshals the power of a religious service in order to shake up
complacent notions of what religion is and expose the roiling questions
and exhilarating possibilities underneath.

CHURCH is being developed through a residency at Park Slope’s BAX/Brooklyn Arts
Exchange with public funding from various sources.

The world premiere of CHURCH takes place at Performance Space 122, from April 26-May 13, 2007. For more information, visit www.ps122.org.
