2017 NYC Production

“Arden/Everywhere” had its world premiere in October 2017, produced by New Feet Productions in collaboration with Baruch Performing Arts Center in Manhattan. The cast of 16 included 9 professionals and 7 non-professional immigrant actors. They came from 9 different countries, including Liberia, Sri Lanka, Russia, Uzbekistan, Kenya and Ecuador.

The production was committed to hospitality for a broad audience through affordable tickets, PR and marketing outreach, multi-lingual program notes and other sources of support for new audiences.
We welcomed audiences of CUNY students, and immigrants from groups such as Make the Road NY and the International Center of Catholic Charities Refugee Services.
We provided plot summaries in translation in Spanish, Arabic, Chinese and Russian.
We taught numerous theater workshops in partnership with community based organizations that work with immigrants and refugees.
We partnered with Shared Studios to bring the Portal Project to Baruch, providing our audience and others in the Baruch college community a unique, immersive way to connect directly with refugees across the globe via high speed internet connections and human sized screens.
We provided information for our audiences interested in pursuing support of refugees in their own communities and internationally.
We partnered with related organizations: USA for UNHCR, HIAS, Film Aid, Baruch College, and Queens College
