LEISURE, LABOR, LUST

Written & Directed by Sara Farrington

An outstanding work of theater that soars on every level.

---TheaterScene

Leisure, Labor, Lust is a theatrical and psychological

journey through the ravages of poverty and the oppressions of affluence in New York City in 1907. It is inspired by the work of Edith Wharton and Jacob Riis.

This piece premiered at The Tank, NYC and was built over

the course of many years and several workshop runs, tours and regional showings premiere to its NYC opening. Below is the video from the full show, as well an evolution of the piece in photographs, from our NYC Premiere in 2018 to our earliest workshops beginning in 2014.
