Anything Helps

Writer: Mark Lanham
Director: Chris Clavelli
Performer: Mark Lanham

Documenting a real-life experience, "Anything Helps" starts with one man's decision to reject passivity about the 70,000 homeless people in New York City. A simple choice -- buying a big pump-top thermos and serving coffee one-on-one to Union Square's homeless -- puts him on a path that explores the true nature of charity: why we give, and why we often hold back. This transforming experience shows the power kindled when you say yes to the call of service, and a surprising paradox of the rich experience that results from eye-level contact with the poor.

Emerging Artists returns with their one-of-a-kind festival. Visit the theater any evening during this three-week event, and you'll find yourself transported in a number of surprising ways: by a single performer embodying a whole host of characters; by a more experimental theater piece "done differently" that challenges and delights; by a cozy two-person show exploring relationships; or perhaps by a bouncy new musical that will have you humming. Emerging Artists has always been about new works, new talents, new voices. That's never been more evident than now.

NO REFUNDS will be granted.
