A special highlight of Mx'd Messages, New York Live Arts' 2017 Live Ideas festival, is the performance by theater ensemble The TEAM of RoosevElvis (Re-MX'D), a concert-style re-imagining of The TEAM's acclaimed production specially created for Live Ideas 2017.

The piece follows a meatpacking plant worker in South Dakota named Ann on a hallucinatory road trip from the Badlands to Graceland where the spirits of Elvis Presley and Theodore Roosevelt battle over what kind of man or woman Ann should become. A playfully pointed duet about icons and gender, performed by actresses Libby King and Kristen Sieh, which the New York Times calls "a spirited and insightful commentary on two archetypes of American masculinity."

RoosevElvis (Re-MX'D) will be presented on Thursday, March 16, 8:00pm. Tickets start at $15.
