2022 New Play Festival: STRENGTH WHEN: Thursday, May 5, through Thursday, May 26, 2022 Jersey City Theater Center (JCTC) presents selected works centering on the theme of STRENGTH. The festival is curated by Cătălina Florina Florescu, Ph.D. “We live in times of war and intense changes. How do we increase the emotional, mental, and physical capacity to withstand the great forth of the daily trauma and the external pressure of our rapidly changing world? What is the source of your strength? These were the questions on our minds as we approached this year’s festival. We dedicate the entire edition of this festival to our Ukrainian friends, who have shown the world their strength, beauty, and resilience, and we pledge to help them in any ways that we can. There is strength in love, there is joy in being together, and there is reassurance that only united we can prevail over unspeakably hurtful times” Olga Levina, JCTC Executive Producer For tickets and more info: www.jctcenter.org |
