New York by David Rimmer
Directed by Gretchen Westbrook
On September 11, 2001, the world changed. But beyond the images that filled our television screens were millions of individual stories, stories of fear, loss, courage, confusion, love, and the difficult journey toward healing.
David Rimmer’s powerful drama New York brings us face-to-face with ordinary people trying to make sense of an unimaginable day. Through a series of intimate, deeply human encounters, fifteen New Yorkers share their experiences with a psychiatrist, revealing how one moment can ripple through countless lives in profoundly different ways.
At times heartbreaking, unexpectedly funny, and ultimately filled with humanity, New York is not simply a play about September 11. It is a play about the people who lived through it, the connections we make when the world feels uncertain, and the resilience it takes to keep moving forward.
More than two decades later, these stories remain a moving reminder that history is not only made up of dates and headlines. It is made up of people.
Join us for an intimate and unforgettable evening of theatre as we remember, reflect, and listen to their stories.
