On Thursday, Pier 42 will be the setting for a theatrical performance, City That Drinks The Mountain Sky, an allegory that traces the epic story of New York City’s water supply.
This past weekend was the official opening of a temporary park at Pier 42, located just above Montgomery Street. The area is one day destined to become a large public green space. But in the meantime, several organizations, including the Two Bridges Neighborhood Council, Hester Street Collaborative, CAAAV, GOLES and the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council are sponsoring a series of summer events on the long-neglected pier.
Thursday’s “mask and puppet” performance is being facilitated by Two Bridges and it is produced by Arm f the Sea Theatre. The event begins at 6:30 p.m., and there is limited seating but it’s probably best to bring your own blanket. For more information on upcoming events at Pier 42, click here.
