Live Theatre Workshop: The Velocity of Autumn

What is this?

This biting, heartfelt story swirls around Alexandra, an 80-year-old artist in a showdown with her family over her fierce independence. In Alexandra’s corner are her wit, her volcanic passion, and the fact that she’s barricaded herself in her Brooklyn brownstone with enough Molotov cocktails to take out the block. But her children have their own secret weapon: estranged son Chris, who returns after 20 years, crawls through Alexandra’s second-floor window and becomes the family’s unlikely mediator. No sooner are the words “Hi, Mom” uttered than the emotional bombs start detonating. The wickedly funny banter and situations are a wonderfully touching discovery of the fragility and ferocity of life. Schedule: Fridays at 7:00pm Saturdays at 7:00pm OR 2:00pm Sundays at 2:00pm Starting: 07:00 PM
