Opening in June 2013:
The World Premiere of Opheliamachine by Magda Romanska
Opheliamachine is a response to Heiner Mueller’s postmodern masterpiece Die Hamletmaschine. Opheliamachine captures our current historical moment with all its contradictions: the dissolution of our national and gender identities; the increasingly fragmented -- if connected -- world we share; the brutal, animal-like quality of our relationships, the collapse of established social orders; and the chaos and violence that follows.
This postmodern tale of love and sex in a fragmented world of questionable values opens at City Garage in June. Watch this space for ticketing and other details!
A New Home for City Garage at Bergamot Station
We’re happy to tell you that we now have a home of our own at Bergamot Station Arts Center. We’re converting the building now and will open our first season in September. We look forward to seeing all of you there, our loyal patrons, and hope you will love it as much as we do. It’s going to be a beautiful space, designed for the kind of edgy, thought-provoking work that is the City Garage signature.
