About the show: We Live to Die: The Grieving Widows Club is a three-part miniseries about community theater-doing maids + grieving widows + murder. This party includes the premiere of the last and final episode of this dark humor multi-media mockumentary series.

In Episode 3:

‘Tis that time of Madame’s decline –
a grisly murder of one maid’s design.
Winnie has had it: she’s done with the pest
of serving this witch who thinks she knows best
to whose bullying banter she’s been victim too oft,
so often that she’s decided this hag must be offed.

Also occurring amidst the blood spatter: The Annual Widowers Ball + an artistic crisis at the Community Maids Theater.

THE EXPONENTIAL FESTIVAL
JANUARY’S BROOKLYN-BASED THEATRE FESTIVAL
~ A pleasure, a mess, a thrill, and a dream. ~​

Exponential is a month-long January festival dedicated to New York City-based emerging artists working in experimental performance. The participants in this multi-artist, multi-venue festival are committed to ecstatic creativity in the face of commercialism. Exponential is driven by inclusiveness and a diversity of artists, forms, and ideas coupled with utopian resource-sharing, mentoring and the championing of risky, rigorous work in eclectic fields. theexponentialfestival.org

If you’d like to do so, or if you would like to ask further questions in advance of being in the space, or if you would like to enter in advance of our house opening (due to our seating not being assigned), please email: cameron@bricktheater.com.
