City of Numbers: mixtape of a city...

City of Numbers: mixtape of a city...

Presented by InterAct Theatre Company at Adrienne Theatre - Mainstage

January 22-February 21, 2010

Originating with a collaboration between InterAct and the City of Philadelphia’s Mural Arts Program (funded by a grant from the Violette de Mazia Foundation), City of Numbers was created by playwright Sean Christopher Lewis as part of an outreach effort in which he interviewed lifetime inmates at Graterford Prison about their work as mural artists. Since its early beginnings, City of Numbers has grown into a dynamic one-man tour de force performance that interweaves the stories of dozens of Philadelphians - from convicted murderers to victims’ relatives to physicians to artists to community leaders to Mayor Michael Nutter. A sobering, moving, and ultimately uplifting portrait of a city gripped by violent crime, City of Numbers reveals both the sharp divisions and deep sense of community that define the City of Brotherly Love.
