The Flying Carpet Theatre
A DAY IN DIG NATION

"DIG NATION has impressive scope and flawless execution...A multi-media vaudeville extravaganza."
-Seattle Times

Produced by Flying Carpet Theatre, A DAY IN DIG NATION follows the company's tradition of developing exciting emerging voices in the American Theater. After smash runs in Boston, Seattle, Edinburgh, and Prague, A DAY IN DIG NATION arrives at Performance Space 122 for two weeks in August. A mash-up of media, sound and live performance, this one-person adventure, performed by Michael McQuilken, features Rex, a man so consumed by technology that he forgets how to communicate with actual people.

Performed by Michael McQuilken; Written by Michael McQuilken and Tommy Smith; Directed by Adam Koplan; Animation by Gene Lange; Projections and Sound Design by Michael McQuilken

A DAY IN DIG NATION
August 13-23 with performances Wednesday through Sunday at 8:30pm and an additional performance Monday, August 18 at 8:30pm.

Camp Summer Camp

pure

Registration for CAMP SUMMER CAMP is now open. Is your roommate having loud sex constantly? Is your husband monopolizing the netflix cue? Have your parents locked up the medicine cabinet again?

This summer, give yourself a well deserved break from the adult in your life: send em' off to CAMP SUMMER CAMP, the first summer camp for adults! Located in the sultry heart of New York's East Village, Performance Space 122's CAMP SUMMER CAMP is the avant-garde- adventure-party you've been looking for. Your adult will be assigned to a downtown-performance-artist- cum-camp-counselor who will guide them through a bevy of stimulating games and possibly illegal activities inside the labyrinth of PS122's 100-year-old public school building.

Before they know it, your adult camper will be snapping photos of their hike down the "secret stairwell," winning merit badges in the playground pie fight, and chugging spiked punch like a teenager. To top off the evening your adult will socialize with other adults at the chaperoned starlight mixer featuring live local bands. Don't be surprised if your adult doesn't want to come home - but plan ahead, space for the Saturday Night Sleepover Adventure is limited!

Camp Summer Camp
August 21 - 30
Thursday - Saturday at 9:00 pm
Tickets from $20, $15 (students/seniors), $10 (P.S. 122 members)
