In Exquisite Corpse Company’s new immersive play, Water, Water, Everywhere… you are invited into the lives of people from the past, present, and future who are all coping with the slippery nature of memory and water. Four overlapping storylines unfold in this multidisciplinary experiential performance inspired by the history of Governors Island and set in a house that was once a home. Water Water Everywhere… opens September 21 to coincide with the UN’s Climate Action Summit on September 23. It addresses the history and future of water use on the island and the global water crisis. Part time-bending magic realism, part interactive family drama, this play penned collaboratively by four playwrights features three distinct audience tracks and takes visitors on a whirlwind tour of magic, memory, and the global water crisis.

Created by Artistic Director and LPTW member Tess Howsam and built in true Exquisite Corpse fashion, Water, Water, Everywhere… blends original score, installations, text, and performance to tell a poignant story of water rights, history, and hope.

Water, Water, Everywhere… runs Saturdays and Sundays from September 7 to October 27 at 2pm & 4:30pm in house 404A on Colonels Row. Previews September 7, 8, 14, 15. Opens September 21, closes October 27.
