Complementary Tickets to 7 Minutes
|
|
|
Tonight 3/24 and Tomorrow 3/25 get free tickets to 7 Minutes at HERE Arts Center!
Can't make it to the free performances? Tickets are also available on a sliding scale starting at $10.
About the show:
Presented by Waterwell, in association with Working Theater:
7 Minutes
by Stefano Massini (writer of The Lehman Trilogy), Directed by Mei Ann Teo
Based on actual events, 7 Minutes depicts an urgent meeting of 11 women elected to the union council of the textile factory where they work. Changes at the factory seem inevitable when new owners take over, giving the council only 90 minutes to vote on a decision with serious consequences for everyone at the factory. Tempers flare and anxieties boil over as individual needs, perspectives and suspicions vie for position while the clock runs down.
A razor-sharp portrait of unionized factory workers grappling in real time with the power imbalance they depend on for their very livelihoods, 7 Minutes scrutinizes the individual impact of the economic forces and labor practices currently under debate in the U.S.
All performances begin at 6:30pm and run 90 minutes.
Through April 10, 2022
