WHO - The New York City Street Players is a group of humans who play in the streets of New York City. We are performance artists, musicians, actors, bards, dancers, writers, poets, clowns, breathers, lovers, magicians, thinkers, singers, buskers, laughers, and leaders. We are a newly formed group, formed because we think New York City needs us to restore places like Union Square to their rightful functions.
WHAT - Free Outdoor Public Behavior
WHERE - Parks and public spaces in New York City
WHEN - Now (Summer 2012)
HOW - With imagination, memorization, and colorful costumes.
WHY - 1.) To promote a standard of human connection/compassion versus a standard of isolation/ignorance. 2.) To open/further a dialogue about the nature of living in this cyber-city. 3.) Because theater is not a place but a voice. 4.) To return to the ancient tradition of theater as a community gathering event. 5.) For fun.
