Reserved Tickets Available Here Elmer Rice's Pulitzer Prize-winning play Street Scene will receive an environmental staging using a Park Slope apartment building. Brooklyn's own award-winning company Brave New World Repertory Theatre will bring the period piece out of the proscenium box, and into our contemporary world.
The play takes place entirely on the front stoop of a New York City apartment building and examines the complex daily lives of its lower income inhabitants (and those of the surrounding neighborhood). Rice captures an evening and a morning in the life of a New York City "village" rife with domestic quarrels, racial and ethnic tensions and economic anxiety.
