“How should we live in a world that’s collapsing?”
A group of Istanbul theater artists struggle to regain their footing in the aftermath of the 2023 earthquake that devastated Turkey and Syria; Alternating between gallows humor and grief, Stories Will Not Mend explores the effect that violence on a mass scale has on those who witness it from a distance and the inextinguishable drive to create new worlds through art, even when that work feels futile.

The Pavement Kingdom: a clinic escort play, by acclaimed playwright Courtney Bailey. The production is being brought from Missouri to NYC as part of BECHDEL PROJECT’s Interstate Initiative, a powerful program aimed at amplifying women+ artist who are working in states where their rights are actively under attack.
The play delves into the vital and often challenging work of clinic escorts. The play follows “Charon,” a clinic escort in the Midwest who helps patients safely navigate past protestors while using her solitary time in the “pavement kingdom” to work on her comedy routine. Written after more than three years of Bailey’s own experience volunteering as a clinic escort at Planned Parenthood, the play offers a unique and vital perspective on the front lines of reproductive healthcare.
The production features the original team that created the piece, with direction by Rachel Tibbetts, Marcy Wiegert performing as “Charon,” stage management by Celeste Genevieve Gardner, and production management by Jim Bernatowicz.
Songs for Safe Access, is a unique concert experience presenting original songs by singer-songwriters and musical theatre artists curated by Alara Magritte and Daniel Rosen.
The evening will conclude with a panel discussion featuring experts and activists, providing valuable insights into the current landscape of reproductive rights and pathways for advocacy.
