The Public Theater Continues 'Free For All' Program For September 29th First Preview of ECLIPSED
Continuing The Public Theater's mission to make theater accessible to all, free tickets will be given out for the first performance of shows in The Public's downtown season at Astor Place. The First Performance Free For All initiative expands on Joe Papp's vision to engage the whole city in the transformative experience of theater that started more than 50 years ago with free Shakespeare in the Park at the Delacorte and has since served more than five million people with over 150 free productions.
The next Free For All performance will be the September 29th first preview of Danai Gurira's Eclipsed, starring Academy Award winner Lupita Nyong'o. Clck here for information on all of this season's Free For All performances.
Amid the chaos of the Liberian Civil War, the captive wives of a rebel officer band together to form a fragile community - until the balance of their lives is upset by the arrival of a new girl. Drawing on reserves of wit and compassion, Eclipsed reveals distinct women who must discover their own means of survival in this deeply felt portrait of women finding and testing their own strength in a hostile world of horrors not of their own making.
