Brooklyn Arts
Exchange presents a "Shared Evening" with the New York
premiere of Shannon Hummel’s "Stay," a duet featuring
dancers Vanessa Adato and Donna Costello, and Maureen Brennan’s
"Alma," vignettes performed by Lisa Mercer (pictured)
that are inspired by Tennessee Williams’ "The Yellow Bird."
The double bill takes place Jan. 17 and Jan. 18 at 8 pm.
"Stay" explores perceptions of safety, loss and regret
after tragic events. On the lighter side, "Alma" humorously
reveals a young woman’s journey of self-discovery.
Admission to the Brooklyn Arts Exchange, 421 Fifth Ave. at Eighth
Street in Park Slope, is $15. Call (718) 832-0018 for more information.
