Harvey Milk once said "politics is theater". We couldn't agree more: That's why Space 55 is proud to kick off our new season with this one-of-a-kind theatrical experience- A staged political convention! Each night will be different: Audience members will get to vote for their favorite candidates, have party officials and candidates appeal to them one-on-one for their support, and even be given a chance to run for President themselves! Come for the pomp and circumstance, stay for the rabble-rousing debates!

In 1612 ten women were hung for the crime of murder by witchcraft, but were they guilty or innocent? Demdike's Devils is based on the transcript of their trial held in Lancaster Castle, England, and incorporates quotes from contemporary plays that were, in most instances, inspired by the same source and events.
