Alexandra Tatarsky collages narratives of artmaking and despair into a semi-autobiographical tour-de-farce, as told by a young Jewish woman who thinks she is a small German boy who thinks he is a tree. Equal parts sad clown, demented cabaret and extended crisis of meaning, this unhinged solo performance takes place in the hellscape of the mind.

Ikechukwu Ufomadu's Amusements, Alexandra Tatarsky's Sad Boys in Harpy Land and Milo Cramer's School Pictures will be performed in rotation throughout November. Presented by Playwrights Horizons.
