The Debates 2021 is an original theatrical adaptation of New York City's 2021 Democratic primary. With electoral contests for mayor, comptroller, and many city council seats, we ask, "What do we want our city to be?" We'll explore the candidates and issues in an online presentation not to be missed. With our unique blend of mimicry, abstraction, and earnest curiosity, we seek to illuminate the candidates, the issues, and ourselves.

Each performance will take place on Zoom with a combination of live and prerecorded scenes.
