The Public Theater hosts the 13th annual Bring A Weasel and A Pint of Your Own Blood Festival, presented by the Brooklyn College Theater Program. This year, the four plays featured in this festival are all adaptations of a common source material: the paintings of artist Martín Ramírez. Brooklyn College playwrights, directors, designers, and actors collaborate on these explosive experiments in form.
After its run at The Public, Bring A Weasel and A Pint of Your Own Blood will perform at The Don Buchwald Theater at Brooklyn College. Learn more and access tickets here.

Peering behind the curtain, Woe is Me uncovers the unexpected similarities between the hospital and the theater. This theatrical essay—comparing the techniques of doctors and actors—explores our collective longing to heal and be healed.
Five queer volunteers—hungry to connect—face a daily, impossible task. Armed with bread and knives, aprons and loss, inside the basement of a rural Unitarian Universalist church, they strive to feed hunger. Amid howls of scarcity, where do we go in search of safety, kindness, and heels of bread?
Partnership between The Public Theater and Brooklyn College is made possible by The Tow Foundation.
