- “Castle On a Hill,” a staged reading of a play by Dan Swern
A high school principal and two students – one past and one present. One apart and one tearing at the seams. Is the principal their only hope or a gilded monster. Fictional characters based on the true events of Teaneck High School in 2003 and 2007.
Dan Swern is a co-founder of Collaborative Arts. Previous positions include NY Shakespeare Festival/Public Theater, Studio 42, 365 Days/365 Plays Festival, NYC Fringe Festival, Godlight Theatre Company, Manhattan Theatre Club. Currently works at George Street Playhouse and coLAB. Primarily a director, this is the first play that Dan has written.
- “Make It,” the premiere of Jack Leary’s music/performance happening
“Make It” is an exciting exploration into creating music – it’s part jam band, part audience interaction and an all enthralling music experience. This unparalleled show will appeal to everyone who would have flocked to Pink Floyd, the Grateful Dead and their spiritual descendants.
