Bushwick Daily is excited to announce that we are an official media sponsor to the epic collaborative event, “The Brooklyn Performance Combine,” produced by Norte Maar, a beloved arts non-profit with roots in Bushwick. And we’re giving away two pairs of reserved seating tickets!
This unique 2-hour durational mashup of poets, painters, performers, aerialists, and a meteorologist will go down on Saturday, June 3, from 7-9 p.m. at The Muse (350 Moffat St., Bushwick).
A timer will start the countdown for the performance. Each artist will be programmed to begin and end at a time designated through chance operations within the 120-minute interval. At times a poet will be reading while a sound artist is performing. A dancer will enter, perform and depart. Aerialists will swing and twist above. Sounds will overlap. There will be silence. Every aspect of the performance will be unrehearsed, live, spontaneous, and uninterrupted. Audiences can come and go as the event clock ticks out of time.
Tickets are $40 reserved seating / $20 general / $15 for seniors and students, but maybe you will be the one who will win a FREE pair of reserved tickets ($80 value) to this unique performative event in Bushwick. Just enter our raffle here, and we will notify the lucky winner next week.
