Still/Here: Manifesting Joy and Survival with NOITP
@ Cornell Square Park
1809 W 50th St, Chicago, IL 60609
Opening Thursday, August 1st, from 6PM - 8PM
The apocalypse is here… but it’s not what you think. In a Chicago that is being rebuilt again and again, who is the city designed to serve? How does our city’s past predict our future? And what would our city look like if it were truly designed for all of its people? Part manifesto, part history lesson, part fever dream of the future, Still/Here invites audiences to imagine a more just and joyful Chicago. Created and performed by an ensemble of 17 artists from across the city, Still/Here is based on material collected in workshops with community members across the city, as well as interviews and conversations with hundreds of people who were asked to answer the questions: what’s still here? What isn’t? And what does your joy require?
