Eureka Day Performance at the 92nd Street Y
The 92nd Street Y has revealed a special performance of the play Eureka Day, followed by a conversation featuring its cast, which includes Amber Gray, Jessica Hecht, Bill Irwin, Thomas Middleditch, and Chelsea Yakura-Kurtz. The discussion will be moderated by Ruthie Fierberg.
Eureka Day, crafted by playwright Jonathan Spector, is known for its sharp wit and timely themes. Currently being staged at the Manhattan Theatre Club, this production has been extended through February 2 due to its successful run in London. The event at 92NY is scheduled for Thursday, January 9, at 8 PM, and tickets can be purchased here.
The narrative of Eureka Day unfolds at a progressive elementary school in California, where the Board prioritizes inclusivity. However, the emergence of a mumps outbreak challenges this idealism, forcing the community to reevaluate its stance on vaccination policies. As the situation escalates, the board faces the daunting task of making decisions that are sure to be controversial.
Located in New York City, the 92nd Street Y is not only a cultural hub but also a promoter of creativity and discussion. Celebrating its 150th anniversary, it provides a wide array of programs, including online classes, workshops, and events in various fields such as music, fitness, and the arts. The organization is dedicated to fostering an environment rooted in Jewish values, advocating for constructive dialogue, educational opportunities, and inclusivity among diverse populations.
