America-in-Play (AIP) continues its mission to investigate America's theatrical legacy and create new
writing and performance. Guided by AIP Artistic Director and Founder Lynn M. Thomson, this year's
writers, composers and videographers explore the 1848 hit comedy
A Glance at New York by Benjamin A. Baker.
Two original pieces - one presented on March 23, the other on March 30 - integrate an adaptation of the
older play with a variety of new writing that addresses the bewilderments and rewards of life in our
city and in America.
Come to both evenings! Before each show we offer exhibits and installations: Come early to this display of
AmericaÕs weird and wonderful theatrical past.
No admission charged.
