"Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest."
Singing, dancing, and preaching create a joyous and breathtakingly beautiful experience in Young Jean Lee's Church. The piece marshals the power of a religious service in order to shake up complacent notions of what religion is and expose the roiling questions and exhilarating possibilities underneath. Lee's signature unpredictability puts the religious and non-religious alike under the spell in a way that defies and tests the beliefs of both.
This is a workshop production of Church, which is scheduled to make its World Premiere at P.S. 122 in April. For information on the Premiere, please click here.
