Stories For Freedom
Stories for Freedom has gathered ten storytellers, who have been cultivating practices of liberation within their work and lives, to join a TMI Project true storytelling workshop to craft their stories of love, resistance, and growth; stories that can be used to further their work and serve as a blueprint for radical generations to come. By crafting radically true stories, Stories for Freedom amplifies the voices of artists, activists, and artivists to inspire identification and belonging in audience members, and challenge all of us to take bold action in the disruption of systemic oppression.RSVP: Required for in-person/livestream

Opening: Scott Michael Ackerman's "Sharp Teeth"
Sat., June 29, 2-6 p.m.
Opening reception for "Sharp Teeth."Scott Michael Ackerman, Kingston born and bred, has tapped into the narrative of folk law, fairy tale and the history of figurative painting in his new body of work Sharp Teeth presented by Hawk and Hive. Inhabited by a cast of wild beasts and peculiar characters, the paintings seem to hover somewhere between child-like enchantment and a shadowy place of suggested violence and the uncanny. For Ackerman, they express the travails of everyday life, interwoven with a dream-like imaginary world. He is exploring themes of “companionship, loneliness and a sense of wonder”.

"Brother's Keeper"
Fri., June 28, 7 p.m. and Sat., June 29, 2 p.m.
Written and performed by Wallace Norman, "Brother's Keeper is a gripping solo play about courageous survival and the delicacy of friendship. Playing 13 characters, Norman shares the journey of two young boys who are abused by a member of the Catholic clergy. Norman shifts between the two main characters as they grow up and apart.

"Ulysses"
Through July 14
If there’s one theatrical ensemble in America that is up for taking on James Joyce's Ulysses, it’s Elevator Repair Service. Founded in 1991 by John Collins, who for 13 years worked as a sound designer at the pivotal Wooster Group (the alma mater of Willem Defoe and Spalding Gray), Elevator Repair Service—cited as “one of New York City’s few truly essential theater companies” by the New York Times—has produced acclaimed adaptations of other modernist works including a version of William Faulkner’sThe Sound and the Fury; “The Select,” a reworking of Ernest Hemingway’sThe Sun Also Rises; and, most famously, “Gatz,” an eight-hour performance of F. Scott Fitzgerald’sThe Great Gatsby.
