Playful Substance Co. Premieres SHELTER IN PLACE At FringeBYOV
The Playful Substance Company prepares for their most ambitious season ... ever, beginning with "Shelter In Place" premiering as part of Fringe BYOV
The first production of the PSC. season, "Shelter In Place," written and directed by Raphael Perahia, began as a part of the PSC Writers Group. Performing Under St Marks, 94 St. Marks Place. Between 1st Avenue & A Avenue on October 24, 25, 26, 31; November 1, and 2. All performances at 7:30 pm.
When the fire alarm goes off in Jahoose's Adult Education Drawing class (Mondays at 4:00pm) and the FDNY issues a mysterious command to "Shelter In Place", five misfits realize that they have become more invested in one another's lives than they ever expected. The powerful new work features Rahoul Roy, Dan Kellmer, Megan Greener,* Nicole Amaral and Brandon Fox.
Shelter in Place is part of the 2019 FringeBYOV. Further info located at https://fringenyc.org/basic_page.php?ltr=S

The PSC Writers Groups Fall Session developing new works from a group of eight participating writers and PSC's annual networking event - "The Pithy Party" - will conclude the season.
