Next year's Under the Radar alt-theater festival kicks off early with these further performances of one of the absolute smash hits of the Quarantine era, 600 Highwaymen's A Thousand Ways (Part One): A Phone Call. This is the first part of a theatrical triptych of encounters between strangers. In this one, someone you don't know calls you up, and over the course of your phone conversation (following prompts) a portrait of your caller emerges. (The Public's page for this show says "Sold Out", but available spaces pop up: good luck!)
MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: I see you sipping a Cognac as your conversation proceeds.
