Flushing (Make Room for Someone Else)
Flushing
(Make Room for Someone Else)
Conceived and Written by Linda Parris-Bailey and Eric Bass
Sandglass Theater
December 17 & 18
It begins at the Brink, where two theater directors are passing the leadership of their ensembles to the next generation. This moment sparks a reflection on what it means to retire and what it might mean to inherit. For those stepping down, what do we leave and who do we become? And for those stepping up, how do we take what is given and make it our own?
A story told with puppets, with songs, and with a deep personal investigation of how Time brings us all to moments of truth and inevitable change.
A work-in-process.
