Ren Faire with director Lance Oppenheim in person
2024-12-08 14:00 - 17:00 | New York
Dir. Lance Oppenheim. 2024, 172 mins (3 episodes). U.S. DCP. For half a century, George Coulam, known to his employees as King George, has reigned with an iron fist over the Texas Renaissance Festival, the largest “faire” in the world. As he turns 86, he realizes it’s time to find a romantic partner, settle down, and pick a successor for his medieval-themed empirefrom his pool of longtime employees. Subject to the gaze of director Lance Oppenheim (Some Kind of Heaven), Coulam’s succession machinations are both baroquely theatrical and earthilycandid. Since everyone in the troupe is a performer, there’s a collaborative synergy between their real lives and the documentary’s ripe stylizations, culminating in a Shakespearean—orRoy-esque—denouement that does not disappoint.

Shopping and Tasting Event
2024-12-09 18:00 - 21:00 | New York

Skimming the Surface: Movement Healing Workshop
2024-12-09 19:00 - 22:00 | New York
This workshop will be held at Green Space with a donation-based, pay-what-you-can entry fee.
To RSVP please email programs@greenspacestudio.org.
Skimming the Surface: Movement Healing Workshops aim to service adult and youth populations that may be overcoming diverse forms of trauma and stress through somatic based expressive movement exercises. These workshops will help participants release blocked and repressed energy causing stress or discomfort in one’s life by integrating movement, feelings, and emotions.
The workshop helps participants confront emotional wounds and bring them to the surface in a gentle and compassionate way. When using the language of movement rather than words, different images or emotions may arise, which bypass the controlling and censoring mind. This experience leaves participants feeing expanded and curious about their emotions, with new insights to move forward from.
Each movement journey is handcrafted to best support the participants. Green serves as a guide to help open doorways where each individual will do their personal work, leading them to a heart centered and intuitive place, finding a physical expression and release of emotions and energy whereby a healing process can begin.

Tess Dworman - Everything Must Go
2024-12-12 19:00 - 2024-12-14 20:30 | New York
Tess DwormanEverything Must Go
December 12-14, 2024
7pm
Performances will take place at The Chocolate Factory Theater, 38-33 24th Street, Long Island City.
Everything Must Go is a dance theater work that emerges from satirical questioning into the consumption of experimental performance. It examines the ways in which capitalism provokes a savior complex in artists, urging us to demonstrate goodness amidst crisis. My investigation into persona and the solo improvisational form continues with this stark inhabitation of character and an inventory of feeling inside the power play between performer and audience. A teacher becomes a life coach becomes The Artist becomes your mom. The work lays bare the tangential renewal of live performance.
Choreographed and Performed by Tess Dworman. Co-performed by Sonya Gadet Molansky and Ned Riseley.
Everything Must Go was first presented by Pageant in November 2023.
This project was developed as part of Lower Manhattan Cultural Council’s Arts Center Residency program. It was supported, in part, by a Foundation for Contemporary Arts Emergency Grant.

December 13th & 14th at 8PMAdvance sale tickets: $20 online
Tickets purchased at door: $25 (Cash or Card)
About the works:
Kelley Donovan & Dancers
Transfigured Ground, explores the transformation experienced when life shifts in unexpected ways, making us vulnerable to sudden loss or illness, creating monumental shifts that alter our paths forever, forcing us to adapt.
Through voice-overs, gestures, projection of energy, breath and muscular effort, the work provides a gateway to observe the body in transformation, exploring the relationship between our bodies and our emotional, physical and spiritual lives, encouraging viewers to reflect on their physicality with body and mind in alignment as a process of healing from recent events during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Dancers will source movement from their personal experiences, exploring how the body can feel when dealing with trauma, creating sharp angles and slicing limbs that segue into liquid curves with startlingly ephemeral shifts of weight with unison movement that provides collective power amidst individual phrases to convey unity.
Susie McHugh + Dancers
Susie McHugh's "Below the Bottom" portrays the multifaceted journey of healing. The macabre visual imagery and vulnerability the dancers bring to the piece invites the audience into the complicated mind of someone with a mental health condition. Inspired by her own mental health journey, Susie's "Below the Bottom" illustrates the non-linear recovery process and explores both the beauty and nightmares that occur when we are alone with ourselves.

Meet and Greet with the principal dancers of Joffrey Ballet School directly after the performance.
​
After the show, join LPAC in our Little Theater and visit Santa's Toyland! This yearly tradition has become a family-favorite event where children can meet Santa and leave with a special gift from LPAC! No RSVP required, your Nutcracker ticket gets you in!
