Making Theater Out of the WNYC Archives

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Apr 16, 2023

This Spring, The Greene Space's Artist in Residence is The Civilians, a theater company based in Brooklyn. Tonight, The Civilians will put on a show called, "Liveness: A Performance Made From The WNYC Archives," which will mix original 1970s recordings from our archives along with performances embodying the voices that New Yorkers heard on the air during the time period. Director and writer Steve Cosson is with us to preview the show. You can find information about tickets here.
