"It’s Boring to Die, by Swedish artist Johan Wahlstrom, is a series that embodies XX large, acrylic and ink canvases filled with graphic, naïf heads and torsos in a dark, limited palette of greys, blues, black and blood-red accents.

Part of a month-long La MaMa Moves Dance Festival, "The Painted Bird Trilogy is an ambitious, emotionally charged production inspired by the classic and controversial novel of the same name by Polish-born author Jerzy Kosinski. The allegorical novel tells the story of a young boy making his way through war-time Eastern Europe and a brilliantly painted bird that is violently killed by its own flock, which mistakes it for an impostor. Award-winning choreographer and director Pavel Zuštiak excavates the tale’s themes—identity, otherness, displacement, and transformation—in three uniquely staged performance events. His approach integrates dance, video, and visual projections with live music." - La MaMa.

"The Gilded Age glitters its brightest, and Wall Street is minting millionaires. A few years after Charles Dow created his average, with New York setting trading volume records, and the latest crash over a decade past, speculation is the in the air like a contagion, and in Bronson Howard's smash comedy, no one is immune." - Metropolitan Playhouse
