The International Human Rights Art Festival (IHRAF) returns to New York City for its 6th year. Sixty new shows will be presented including new short musicals, dance pieces, one act plays, solo shows, poetry, puppetry and musical acts. Over 200 local and international artists will showcase their work which revolves around pressing social issues such as climate change, religion, immigration, caregiving, identity, diversity, LGBTQIA+, women's empowerment and more.
Three short musicals will be presented including Another Cousin's Wedding, where a closeted gay man is about to be set up with a traditional marriage; Turbulance follows three people who end up helping each other overcome fears on a flight from New Jersey to Milwaukee and Big Ass Secret about a gay Florida highschooler.
Twenty-five dance pieces will be presented including Mother Earth, Let Me Bloom!, a multi-layered, dance theater experience that centers on the euphoria, dysmorphia and oppression of the trans and genderqueer community; Echoes, a contemporary, hip-hop and traditional Filipinx dance work, elevated by cutting-edge motion capture technology and We Rise that addresses the critical issue of domestic violence, aiming to uplift and empower women worldwide.
Twenty-four theatre pieces will be showcased including the short play Ǝverything Okay, where a family relocates to Mars to avoid the problems the earth faces; Moonlight Becomes You, set in a haunted Provincetown Bed & Breakfast, where a young lesbian couple discover the queer trailblazers who came before and Lucy Joseph, that centers around a 19th century gender non-conforming pioneer Lucy Ann Joseph Israel Lobdell.
