Attack Theatre is celebrating it's 30th Season this year, and they have an exciting lineup to kick it all off!
Executive Director, Andres Franco, talks about his first 6 months on the job, and the all the exciting events coming up at Attack Theatre. Their first performance of the season, "Some Assembly Required: At Home" was first commissioned by the Carnegie Museum of Art in 1996, is a signature Attack Theatre experience. The show involves live music, dance, visual art, audience participation, and improvisation.
Andres talks about the music by Cello Fury member, Simon Cummings. Each art piece in this show is part of Persad Center’s Art for Change collection and will be available for purchase. Audience participation is not required, though Andres highly recommends.
He also talks about the rest of Attack Theatre's season! "Holiday and Hops", "Once in a While", and many others! It all culminates in the thirty ball in May of 2026. It's the biggest party, and celebrates all 30 years of the theater.
You can see "Some Assembly Required" on October 4th-5th. You can also see the performance on October 10th at the Andy Warhol Museum, and 16th at Contemporary Craft.
