Date and Time: June 17th at 8pm
Location: New World Stages, 340 West 50th Street, bet 9th and 9th avenues.

It is March 1946. In the past year, Winston Churchill has led Britain and the
Allies to victory in the European Theatre of World War II. He has also
shockingly been defeated for re-election as Prime Minister. Sitting in forced
retirement with his wife Clementine at their Chartwell home, Churchill receives
an invitation from President Harry Truman to speak in the States…at
Westminster College in Fulton, Missouri, where he will deliver his legendary,
emphatic “Iron Curtain” speech. He arrives in Fulton to an informal and
esoteric gathering of friends and supporters, and shares his life in flashback
and in storytelling.

ONE IMMERSIVE EXPERIMENTAL THEATER EXPERIENCE

Experimental Pirate Musical on-board a real ship “Hacked: The Treasure of the
Empire!”
Date and Time: June 12 at 9pm
Location: GBX Gowanus Terminal, 699 Columbia Street , South Red Hook, New York
11231


HACKED…THE TREASURE OF THE EMPIRE! is a contemporary tale of pirate hacker
activists who, through virtual manipulation, battle the corrupting icon of our
world, by liberating all the Gold from the biggest global bank on the planet,
the Mammon Corporation. It is a metaphoric spectacle of a corporate and state
collusion to control the destiny of every man/woman. This experimental opera is
told through song, aerial acrobatics, video & huge puppet heads perched up high
in the rigging of the 90 ft Caravan ship. It features poetic lyrics, an exotic
musical score, multiple video screens with a global array of imagery and visual
trickery, surreal lighting and sound, and passionate characters that spy, swag,
savage, swoon, sing and strut the world’s stage.

New York Times described Hacked as “Cirque du Soleil meets Occupy Wall
Street.”
