Judith Sloan & Friends
An evening of stories, songs, monologues about migration, refuge and finding home. Judith Sloan is an actress/audio artist/radio producer, human rights activist and educator whose work bridges the divide between expressive and documentary forms. Her award-winning performances and radio documentaries combine humor, pathos and a love of the absurd. Her multi-character performances explore love, loss and the search for belonging. She'll be performing excerpts from her plays about working with immigrant youth, including Yo Miss! and Crossing the BLVD. She is joined by singer Emily Wexler and pianist Dominic Frigo, who will be performing songs from her play in progress, It CAN Happen Here. In addition to her own work, Sloan will be joined by two authors. Long time collaborator and life partner, author/artist/performer Warren Lehrer presenting excerpts from his books, including Five Oceans in a Teaspoon, and a new work in progress Trace: A Survelled Novel. Author/playwright Alvin Eng will read from his memoir, Our Laundry, Our Town: My Chinese American Life from Flushing to the Downtown Stage and Beyond. This performance is made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature. Books will be available to buy, and there will be a Q&A.
