Photos: The Neighbors Take Us Behind The Scenes Of THIRD LAW

On Saturday, May 11th What Will the Neighbors Say? (James Clements and Sam Hood Adrain, Co-Artistic Directors) premiered THIRD LAW, an interactive theatrical experience created at Culture Lab LIC (5-25 46th Ave, Queens, NY 11101). The show is set to run through May 26. See photos from inside rehearsal below.

THIRD LAW is an interactive theatrical experience, working to maximize audience agency and bring them into the heart of art making using technology. Through a digital game board, the audience has the unique opportunity to shape the world of the play and the characters in it, collaborating with the artists and each other to co-create a performance that can only happen live and in person. Combining high-concept art installation design with performance and gameplay, THIRD LAW brings us together in space in a visceral and dynamic way - and it’s never the same twice.

Third Law is devised and performed by Shani Matoaka Bekt, Sam Hood Adrain, Megan Mariko Boggs, Pablo Calderón-Santiago, James Clements, and Melannie Vásquez Lara with director Coral Cohen. The design team includes Lighting Design by Jacqueline Scaletta, Sound and Video Design by Cosette Pin, Costume Design by Elizabeth Shevelev and Set Design by Miles Giordani. THIRD LAW was developed in part during a BRIClab Residency at BRIC (Brooklyn, NY).

Remaining performances are scheduled on Thursday, May 16 at 7pm & 8:30pm, Friday, May 17 at 7pm & 8:30pm, Saturday, May 18 at 2pm, 4pm & 9pm, Sunday, May 19 at 2pm, Thursday, May 23 at 7pm & 8:30pm, Friday, May 24 at 7pm & 8:30pm, Saturday, May 25 at 2pm, 4pm, 7pm & 9pm, and Sunday, May 26 at 2pm & 4pm.
