Photo Flash: First Look at Concrete Temple Theatre's THE BELLAGIO EXPERIENCE
By: Tyler Peterson
Concrete Temple Theatre presents The Bellagio Experience: featuring a photography exhibition by Stefan Hagen, tours and panels on the topic of water, and the World Premiere play The Bellagio Fountain has been known to Make Me Cry, written by Renee Philippi, co-directed by Eric Nightengale and Renee Philippi, designed by Carlo Adinolfi, with original music composed by Joseph C. Phillips Jr. All events take place at Studio 301 at English Kills, located at 301 Ten Eyck Street between Waterbury and Bogarts Streets in Brooklyn, April 30 - May 3, 2015.
The Bellagio Fountain has been known to Make Me Cry will have an encore engagement September 2 - 5, 2015 at the Irondale Center, located at 85 South Oxford Street between Lafayette Avenue and Fulton Street in Brooklyn.
With The Bellagio Experience, Concrete Temple Theatre (CTT) brings our attention to the power and importance of water, by choosing to perform in venues near bodies of water that are rich in the history of water-usage in NYC. At Studio 301 at English Kills this spring, they present one block from English Kills, and in September at the Irondale Center, they present near the Gowanus Canal. Both were once creeks that became part of the busiest industrial area in the USA, before evolving into what they are today. To inform their conversation about water, CTT have invited experts with unique insights into local and global water to share their knowledge with audiences.
The April 30 - May 3 performances of The Bellagio Fountain has been known to Make Me Cry are Thursday and Friday at 8pm, Saturday at 3pm and 8pm, and Sunday at 3pm. Tickets are $18 for adults and $15 for students and seniors and can be purchased online at http://ConcreteTempleTheatre.com or by calling 646-234-0399. The box office opens 1 hour prior to each performance. The running time is 75 minutes. For info, directions and train service information visit http://ConcreteTempleTheatre.com.
