Promenade, which features a book by María Irene Fornés and music by Al Carmines, follows two escaped prisoners, known only as 105 and 106, as they run through the city, mingling with an assortment of characters from the poor and homeless to the extremely wealthy.
The Lobby Project, a series of free, pre‐performance events, will feature an investigative theatre performance based on the themes of each Off-Center production created by City Center Artists-in-Residence The Civilians. The events take place in City Center’s Grand Tier lobby one hour before curtain and are free for ticket holders.
