Long envisioned as a major international cultural institution in the heart of a revived Lower Manhattan, the Perelman Performing Arts Center (PAC NYC) is the final element and cultural keystone of the 2003 Master Plan developed during Mike Bloomberg’s tenure as mayor for rebuilding the World Trade Center site after the tragedy on 9/11. PAC NYC will help to redefine Lower Manhattan as a cultural destination and serve as a testament to the power of the arts to inspire and unite us. Currently under construction, we will open to the public in September of this year.
On October 3, 2011, Chinese-American Army Pvt. Danny Chen was found dead in a guard tower at his base in Afghanistan. Based on his story and the ensuing courts-martial of Chen’s fellow soldiers, this New York City premiere opera tells the powerful true story of a young soldier from Manhattan’s Chinatown who sought to serve his country, only to find his biggest threat was the very people who swore to protect him.
Told through the multidimensional music of Huang Ruo (M. Butterfly, Book of Mountains and Seas) with libretto by Tony and Grammy winner David Henry Hwang (M.

Coming to PAC NYC following runs at Oregon Shakespeare Festival, Yale Repertory Theatre,
McCarter Theater and Seattle Rep, this play centers on one family’s story of love, loss, and resilience
spanning the 1890 massacre at Wounded Knee, forced re-education at Indian boarding schools,
World War II, the Civil Rights Movement, Vietnam and the American Indian Movement occupation of
Wounded Knee in 1973. Directed by Obie Award winner Eric Ting and infused with the 1491s’ boldly
uninhibited comedy, this New York City premiere takes a hard look at the effects of systemic
oppression long after our textbooks typically stop teaching Native history. Also, it’s funny.
By The 1491s
Directed by Eric Ting

A fabulously radical reimagining of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s iconic dance musical based on T. S. Eliot’s Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats, inspired by the pageant competitions of New York City’s Ballroom culture. With all new ballroom and club beats, and an edgy eleganza makeover, this Jellicle Ball trades feline for fierce, celebrating the joyous transformation of self at the heart of Cats and Ballroom culture itself.
By arrangement with The Really Useful Group
Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber based on Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats by T. S. Eliot
Choreographed by Arturo Lyons and Omari Wiles
Directed by Zhailon Levingston and Bill Rauch

Not long ago. And not far from now. In the aftermath of unspeakable tragedy, an opportunistic reporter visits a sacred space defiled by American violence, in search of a story ready made for Hollywood — only to find that history repeats itself too soon, and too close to home. A PAC NYC World Premiere from the acclaimed artistic team of Tony Award-winning choreographer / dancer / director / writer Bill T. Jones (Fela!, Spring Awakening), poet Marc Bamuthi Joseph (We Shall Not Be Moved), composer Tamar-kali (Mudbound) and dramaturg Lauren Whitehead (Between the World and Me: Onstage at the Apollo). Watch Night fuses melodies rooted in spirituals, percussive breath and fiery opera with the urgency of slam poetry and Bill T. Jones’ dynamic staging to create an immersive exploration of justice and forgiveness in the face of deadly rage.
