Loading Chautauqua in @ Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston.

Look! The New Yorker wrote us up as one of the top 10 shows of 2009
If you missed out check us out at The Public this January
There is no theatre company in New York quite like the National Theatre of the United States of America, and there was no other show this past season quite like this one. Modelled on the historical lecture circuit of the late nineteenth century, “CHAUTAUQUA!” (which played at P.S. 122) was part history pageant, part public service, part farce, and part Pirandellian theatrical experiment that earnestly sought to engage its local audiences not just with its past but with its present—a slick, ambitious, rigorous, and big-hearted celebration of all things theatrical and democratic. If you missed it the first time, don’t fret: it returns in January as part of the Public’s “Under the Radar” festival. (B.J.J.)
