A Night of Horovitz

WARNING! THIS SHOW CONTAINS SIMULATED BOMBING AND FLASHING LIGHTS WHICH MAY CAUSE SEIZURES AND/OR PTSD.

THERE WILL BE NO LATE SEATING. You may be admitted into the theatre after intermission.

ONE19 Productions first production will be a combination of two Israel Horovitz one-acts: 'The Indian Wants The Bronx' and 'Beirut Rocks' performed in one program titled 'A Night Of Horovitz'.

As a company, we feel that it is important to reflect modern day society through theatre. These pieces explore how fear and rage poison the human experience through cultural ignorance and narcissism.

THE INDIAN WANTS THE BRONX
An East Indian gets lost on his first day in New York as two teenage punks find him waiting at a lonely bus stop. He cannot understand English, and the boys have some fun with him at least it starts out as fun. But little by little, they get bored; then annoyed; then vicious. It is the very pointlessness of their brutality that makes the play so disturbing.
