NYC: Legacy Project in-school Workshops & Refugee Workshops
March 25 – May 8


Berlin 1939 and America today.

Legacy is based on the true story of a young American who rescues a Jewish photo journalist and her children out of Germany. This suspenseful escape is pierced by stories of today’s refugees.

MAY 15th
Disgraced
By Ayad Akhtar
Direction: Carol Fox Prescott

From its stunning Broadway run “Smart…surprising…shocking” — New York Times
The successful New York lawyer Amir enjoys a comfortable life with his American wife, a talented artist influenced by Islamic imagery. But when his Muslim heritage is questioned, his life begins to unravel and a celebratory dinner with friends leads to surprising actions of prejudice, identity and faith.

Boycott Esther
By Emily Acker
Direction: Dennis Carlo Patella

Experience this up-to-the-minute new play. In an urgent response to the #metoo movement, Boycott Esther chronicles the aftermath of a young woman’s career after her boss, a Hollywood mogul, becomes enmeshed in a workplace sexual misconduct scandal. In a world where information is spread and opinions are formed in the click of a mouse, what is our collective capacity for forgiveness?
