IATI Theater Presents THE DIAMOND STAG As Part Of Its Pride Celebration 2019

IATI Theater, in its commitment to serve as a platform for the most innovative and diverse artists in New York City, is proud to present The Diamond Stag: a theatrical performance art piece conceived by designer, conceptual, and installation artist Andrew Yang.

In The Diamond Stag, audiences are invited to an immersive experience in which they'll journey through nature, identity, vanity, and sanity - challenging their connection with the surrounding world.

Yang's world-renowned work has focused on doll-making as a medium for storytelling. In this thrilling debut of a New Medium, Yang brings his dolls to life through puppetry and costume - combining visual art and dramatic performance in an immersive fairy tale for a savage world.

Conceived as an exclusive and intimate experience for a limited group of visitors. Performed multiple times a day, each group will have the opportunity to experience the space and discover the story of the diamond stag for an approximate runtime of 20 minutes. Click here for tickets.
