WORLD PREMIERE
JAPAN SOCIETY COMMISSION

Get a rare look behind the scenes of Japan Society’s landmarked building in Our Planet , our newly-commissioned theater production that whisks the audience through offices, gallery rooms, hidden stairwells and backstage areas.

Duffy’s team includes OBIE-winning scenic designer Mimi Lien , costume designer Becky Lasky , lighting designer Jiyoun Chang , composer and sound designer Tei Blow , Japanese motion graphics master Nobuyuki Hanabusa and actors Julian Rozzell, Jr. and Jenny Seastone Stern . Performed in English.
