NAPSeries: Into the Side of a Hill by James Anthony Tyler | Apollo Theater
Arts
Experience the powerful new play "Into the Side of a Hill" by James Anthony Tyler at the NAPSeries Reading Festival. This 29-hour reading, directed by Ken-Matt Martin, will take place at the iconic Apollo Theater in Harlem, New York. Tyler's thought-provoking work explores themes of mental illness, toxic masculinity, and war within the context of a Historically Black University in 2004. As six fraternity brothers rehearse for the annual homecoming step show, their brotherhood is put to the test. Will they remain united in the face of adversity? After the reading, there will be a guided feedback session in the Liz Lerman style, allowing the audience to share their thoughts on this brand new play. Don't miss the opportunity to witness Tyler's unique talent and profound vision come to life on stage. In addition to "Into the Side of a Hill," the NAPSeries Reading Festival will also feature other plays throughout the weekend, including "Enduring Atlas" by Jacqueline Bircher and "The World's Cassette Library," a new musical by Mike Nappi, Sam Durant Hunter, and Max Sangerman. Normal Ave believes in redefining normal by nurturing an inclusive community of fresh, diverse voices and inviting collaborative freedom in the artistic process. Join us at the Apollo Theater and be a part of the conversation. The door is open.
