Wander through Fort Greene with me!

Early into the pandemic, New Georges created some magic by connecting me with three other affiliated artists: Deneen Reynolds-Knott, Dina Vovsi, and Emerie Snyder. We’ve now made EXITS, an audio-theatrical journey through one of my favorite Brooklyn neighborhoods (and former Brooklyn home): Fort Greene.

My particular piece of EXITS, called Annex, allowed me to bring together some of my most favorite people. I got Jason Gray Platt to write the words; Marianna McClellan, Yonatan Gebeyehu, and Merlin Whitehawk to record the audio along with Rory Kulz, Aubyn Heglie, Ben Hoover, Marc Atkinson Burrell, and Danaya Esperanza. The audio experience will be out on September 30.

Also starting on September 30 and going through October 4 will be live performances of the experience! Featuring choreography by Kristen Carcone and performed by Marianna and Merlin. They are doing crazy things on the streets of New York! All to tell a story about love, loss, healing—and coffee.
