60 Play in 60 Minutes? Can It Even Be Done?

TOO MUCH LIGHT MAKES THE BABY GO BLIND: 60 Plays in 60 Minutes

One Weekend Only Special Event April 1st and 2nd, 2011.

The NEW YORK NEO-FUTURISTS will attempt to perform a double-time version of their ongoing, award-winning show Too Much Light Makes The Baby Go Blind by cramming 60 plays, instead of the usual 30 into their sixty minute performances on April 1st and 2nd at the Kraine Theater (85 East 4th St). This special one-weekend-only event will take place Friday and Saturday at 10:30pm.

Experience not only a double-time performance, but also a doubled-up cast of New York Neo-Futurists including Alicia Chaisson, Roberta Colindrez, Cara Francis, Jacquelyn Landgraf, Christopher Loar, Lauren Sharpe and Adam Smith, joined by founding New York Neo-Futurists Sarah Levy, Marta Rainer and F Omar Telan as they celebrate the Neo-Futurists seventh year in New York with an attempt to cram 60 lightening-quick plays into 60 minutes, for a Too Much Light experience that is twice as nice. Blink and you will miss something spectacular.

Members of the 2011 New York Neo-Futurists ensemble are Jill Beckman, Christopher Borg, Alicia Chaisson, Roberta Colindrez, Jeffrey Cranor, Cara Francis, Ryan Good, Eevin Hartsough, Nicole Hill, Jacquelyn Landgraf, Erica Livingston, Christopher Loar, Dan McCoy, Rob Neill, Joey Rizzolo, Lauren Sharpe and Adam Smith.

Tickets are $11.00 plus the roll of a six-sided die ($12-$17) at the door. Advance tickets are $17.00 and can be purchased online at www.nyneofuturists.org, or by calling 212-352-3101.
