Theatre C Opens at the Barrow Street Theatre 11/2 with ACTIVATE Gala

According to The Clyde Fitch Report, the brand new Theatre C theatre company will launch its premiere season at the Barrow Street Theatre on November 2nd. The company will kick off with ACTIVATE!, a benefit gala for the opening of the company. The evening will feature acrobats from Fuerzabruta, musical numbers from Jafferis and Williams' Kingdom and Peña and Ferguson's Orpheus and Eurydice, and scenes from David Zellnik's Serendib.

"Theatre is evolving into a medium of mixed disciplines," Artistic Director Carlos Armesto told the Fitch Report. "The line is fading that separates theatre, dance, film, sculpture, music, circus or even sporting events is fading. I want to be a part of that evolution - in a very focused way. That's why I'm creating Theatre C."
