NY PAUSE Performance Lab
Creative Women, Lee Douglass and Tricia Mancuso Parks, are producing the SHAKES2020 read experiences almost weekly. Join us! Read the texts out loud together. Read the words. Love the words!
Performance Lab provides an environment where we explore and experience texts, concepts, and ideas together.
The lab lays the groundwork for workshops, creates community, and the muscle for performance and production.
Studio, Stage & Screen
The source for a story can come from an infinite number of sources and can take many forms. At CW, our focus is on the performing arts, whether performed live, captured on celluloid, or devised.
In Studio, Stage and Screen, we explore and present stories that have manifested in any of those disciplines, keeping in mind that art is fluid and can change shape at any time.
