Are you scared about the future? Do you feel climate despair? What’s your first memory of a storm? What’s a time you’ve leaned on a neighbor during a disaster? Do you think the world has ended, or has it just begun?
Join us for A FUN PLAY ABOUT HOW SCARY a comedic, site-specific, devised, free public performance, and is about striving for hope (not despair) in the face of climate change, with fantastical swamp creatures to teach us these lessons.
Come for the live theater and music, stay for the food, installation, and community talk-back about environmental justice afterwards. This event is completely free, for all ages, FUN, and will run for about 2 hours.

La Plaza Haunted Adventure Garden & Rat Race Maze
2023-10-28 - 2023-10-31
For 365 days a year, rats are the stuff nightmares are made of for New Yorkers. The theme at this year’s spooky Halloween adventure garden is Rats, because whether they rule or horrify, they’re a part of living in NYC. At this costume party, bring your whole family, as there’ll be mystic fortune telling, face painting and thrilling coffin rides.
Oh! And try not to get trapped in the Rat Race Maze:
“This maze is your future; you’ll be zigging, zagging and
back-tracking in your future corporate rat race life. Of course, right now, you’re starting off in community and if you ever get out of the rat race you’ll end up in community. In the meantime, you’re going to learn the hard way. But why not avoid the corporate rat race and make your future more sustainable by supporting your community and keeping it positive.”
If you like to be a volunteer to help, please let us know.

More event details coming soon!
