SUMMARY:Gestating Baby Volume 9: Rawya El Chab & Adin Lenahan
DESCRIPTION:The Brick presents\nGestating Baby Volume 9: Rawya El Chab & Adin Lenahan\nDecember 18-21\, 2024 at 8PM\nRunning Time: 80 Minutes\nat The Brick – 579 Metropolitan \nNote: All tickets sales for the Wednesday\, Dec 18 performance will be donated to the Hunna Arts & Culture Center. \nGestating Baby is a semi-regular series of split bill performances that presents new and unpredictable works across the spectrum of theatrical performing arts. It began in 2013 at The Silent Barn and is now revived at The Brick in Brooklyn\, NY. \nFeaturing: \n \nCrossing the Water \nCrossing the Water is a solo performance written and performed by Rawya El Chab that weaves together Lebanon’s turbulent history from the 1978 occupation through the 1982 invasion of Beirut. Through interviews with resistance fighters and family members\, El Chab reconstructs history from marginalized perspectives\, crafting a layered narrative that explores three distinct yet interconnected journeys across water. The performance draws poetic parallels between desperate immigrants crossing seas in search of safety\, armies traversing borders to occupy foreign lands\, and the mythological crossing of the river Styx into the underworld. By intertwining these narratives\, El Chab creates a powerful meditation on displacement\, invasion\, and mortality\, revealing how personal and political histories ripple through generations. The piece challenges audiences to consider the profound implications of crossing boundaries—whether driven by survival\, power\, or fate. \nBy Rawya El Chab\nDirected by Jesse Freedman\nSet and projection design by Ettie Pin\nMusic Composition & Sound Design by Omar Dewachi\nImage Credit Carine Zahabi @carine_zahabi\n \n@rawyaelchab \nRunning time: 30 minutes \n-AND- \n \nDoom Scroll \nDoom Scroll borrows the deliciousness and compulsivity of TikTok to create theatrical brain rot. An endless parade of TikTokers ranging from Disney Adults and viral preachers to true crime enthusiasts and ASMR Reiki practitioners\, even Nicole Kidman\, all speak in no more than three minute intervals\, converging for a tale of extremism\, celebrity worship\, the perverse\, and the stupid. \nWritten and Performed by Adin Lenahan\nDirected by Dmitri Barcomi\n \n@adinlendahand @dmx.barcomi \nRunning time: 40 minutes
