The world premiere of A Barn Playa play that explores animal rights and family separationtakes place on March 18 and the show will run until April 4 in New York City. A Barn Play shares the story of seven farm animals who are rehearsing for their own play. The rehearsal is disrupted when a cow and pig have to explain to a sheep that their little ones, whove been taken away by a farmer, are not coming back. The hour-and-a-half long play sheds light on the animal farming industrys practices of taking away animals babies while providing a parallel look at the countrys current immigration issue involving human children being separated from their parents. I always look for something that Id never seen before, and A Barn Play certainly fits that description, Artistic Director James Bosley said. But aside from its uniqueness, I was drawn to the subversive way it approaches the issues of animal rights, and of family separation which, for our Northern Manhattan community, is an extremely urgent concern. A Barn Play is produced by the UP Theater Company and takes place at the Good Shepherd/Inwood Academy Space in the Inwood neighborhood of NYC.
