Broadway's upcoming musical comedy The Prom will dance on...just in a new theatre!

Autonomous, anti-capitalist, gender self-determining collective BRUJAS-who build revolutionary political coalition through youth culture, and express community through skateboarding, art, and political organizing-will be in residence at Performance Space New York from May 25-June 9. With their project, Training Facility, they have enlisted industrial designer Jonathan Olivares to transform the organization's new theater into a skate park and intimate meet-up spot.

Or, as BRUJAS co-founder Arianna Gil herself has described it, 'the Met-Gala of the underground.'
