  • Feast Your Famine
    Feast Your Famine: a watch-and-play​ is an interactive five-night performance-and-social-action hybrid event, re-envisioning the legacy of the "hero" in Western culture from medieval knights to today and seeking to practice new realities in community. With possibilities for multi-day game play or a single night's experience, audiences can join a diverse body of artists and activists in a journey of boundary crossing, soul-troubling, and action through both avant garde and traditional performances and social-action events -- set inside the framework of a re-imagined medieval feast. For details on the schedule and the presenters, please visit the ​Feast Your Famine​ website and follow the event on Instagram @feastyourfamine. This event is a result of Wistaria Project's Re-Residency, in which we "re-gift" the Performing Artist Residency we received from The Center at West Park to an exciting diversity of performers and activists. Each Re-Resident will present their work on one night of the festival. The Re-Resident Cohort has worked together to devise First Night and Last Night -- the opening and closing of the feast -- with interactive, hybrid performance/events to bring us together to imagine, engage, and take action here and now. Wednesday, November 13. FIRST NIGHT​ ​An interactive event inside a re-invented, justice-oriented medieval “feast”, created by the Re-Residents. Songs. Poetry. Activities. Quests.

  • Elevator Repair Service
    ELEVATOR REPAIR SERVICE ABRONS ARTS CENTER A CONVERSATION BETWEEN JOHN COLLINS AND KATE SCELSA Kate Scelsa: So, John! John Collins: Kate, you’ve worked as a company member with ERS for about sixteen years now…And it turns out that you were doing stealth research for all these years on what would be perfect parts to write for some of our actors. KS: This is going to sound very sentimental, but writing this play has really felt like a love letter to this company. So it’s that, combined with my very deep love for Edward Albee’s play and specifically for the character of Martha. JC: And it’s exciting for me because I’m getting to work with one of my favorite novelists, who wrote one of my favorite books of the past couple of years. KS: Thank you for that plug. JC: It also fits in really nicely with the shows you’ve worked on with us, taking another work of great American literature as a jumping off point. And looking at the parts you’ve played in ERS shows, there have been a lot of Marthas in your life. KS: I’ve always been very interested in whether or not embodying that kind of female rage could be seen as sympathetic. Even powerful. Or if those women just become the shrew. Which means their rage can be dismissed. JC: Well you take Martha, who’s an extreme character… KS: She doesn’t care what anyone thinks of her. But what are the consequences of that attitude? For most of Albee’s play we see Martha as this incredible feminist character, in that she and her husband are on equal footing, and that’s what makes it so fascinating to watch, and fun to play.

Thoughts from the Founding Director Past & Current Pentacle Artists Tribute to Past Pentacle Staff Board of Directors- Celebration Committee- Staff Body Wisdom: Pentacle Celebrates Forty Years Tonight’s Program & Performers Event Sponsors & Donors Greetings Welcome Thank you for joining us tonight and celebrating this 40th Anniversary! In 1976 we opened our doors with a staff of four, providing what we called “cluster management” to four companies. Our mission was then and remains today to help artists do what they do best….create works of art. We have steadfastlyprovided day-to-day administration services as well as local and national innovative projects to individual artists, companies and the broader arts community. But we did not and could not do it alone. We have had the support of literally hundreds of arts administrators, presenters, publicists, funders, and individual supporters. So tonight is a celebration of Pentacle, yes, and also a celebration of our enormously eclectic community. We want to thank all of the artists who have donated their time and energies to present their work tonight, the Rubin Museum for providing such a beautiful space, and all of you for joining us and supporting Pentacle. Welcome and enjoy the festivities! Mara Greenberg Patty Bryan Director Board Chair Thoughts from the Founding Director What is the landscape for emerging dance artists? A question addressed forty years later. There are many kinds of dance companies—repertory troupes that celebrate the dances of a country or re- gion, exquisitely trained ensembles that spotlight a particular idiom or form—classical ballet or Flamenco or Bharatanatyam, among other classicisms, and avocational troupes of a hundred sorts that proudly share the dances, often traditional, of a hundred different cultures.
