www.zefrey.com/ocularpation.html
Are you tired of openings at supposedly cutting edge venues that claim to push boundaries and critique social norms and end up with a strangely familiar and stale pandering to the people they said they were challenging?
Hell, I know I am!
Come be part of a project that is actually pushing into exciting waters!
Have you ever wondered what is actually going on down on at Wall Street and thought to yourself, 'Who works there anyway?'
Now is your chance to find out!
What:
Large performance on Wall Street.
50 performers mirroring the demographics of who works on the actual street of Wall.
