Event info

This performance is appropriate for Grades 2 – 8.

In one Lower East Side tenement, forty layers of wallpaper were found clinging to the walls – each piece applied by a new immigrant family. Using puppetry, masks and live action, Layer the Walls tells the incredible stories held within each layer. An Irish immigrant helps build the Brooklyn Bridge, Italian brothers survive the Great Blizzard of 1888, and two Russian Jewish garment workers join the Uprising of 20,000 to fight for safety.
