Mon. April 21, 6:30PM: Carl Hallberg one person play: “A Performed Lecture on Gardening, Neighborliness, and John Brown”
April 21, 2025 @ 6:30 PM
Carl Hallberg premiers his one person play: “A Performed Lecture on Gardening, Neighborliness, and John Brown” through storytelling, puppetry, and song.
Can we learn resistance from the land? Have we known all along what to do?
In this documentary piece, Carl Hallberg shares news, stories, and sketches from the land as he traces his journey east from the Mississippi watershed to the Hudson River basin. With help from some found objects, Carl searches for new relationship with the Earth, and wonders how to anchor a resistance to fascism in the reciprocal love that we find in the ecosystems around us. How can we maintain a commitment to pacifism and nonvionence in a time of genocide and Luigi Mangione style heroism?

Where: Friends Meeting House of the Brooklyn Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers),
110 Schermerhorn St, Brooklyn, NY 11201 (2nd floor). This space is wheelchair accessible.
