PUBLIC LAB

Public LAB is an annual series of new plays that lets you see more of the work you love from The Public and LAByrinth Theater Company in stripped-down productions for ONLY $10. Public LAB allows us to support more artists and gives you immediate access to new plays.

A fast-paced entertainment that takes a sharp, irreverent look at America’s seventh president, Andrew Jackson. This satirical epic reveals questions about the country we live in and the leaders we choose. From Obie winners Alex Timbers (A Very Merry Unauthorized Children's Scientology Pageant) and Michael Friedman (co-writer of Paris Commune in Public LAB 2007). New York Premiere.

Performance contains the use of fog, haze, and strobe effects. Running time: 90 min. with no intermission.
