About this commission
Gathering: New York City is an invitation, a party, a protest, a celebration of harvest, the championship game. It’s a night of storytelling and play that is part staged work, part interactive experience in collaboration with local artists and audiences.
Produced and performed by Yaa Samar! Dance Theatre (YSDT, Palestine/NYC) and directed/choreographed by Samar Haddad King with text and additional original music by King, each Gathering is a singular event that calls you to join as participant or witness in the collective action. The cast features seven international YSDT performers—from Japan, Palestine, Taiwan, Turkey, the UK, and the US—and six local artists.
