Gray Area is pleased to present the debut of Are the Birds Happy? — a digital take on café society — a new, fully interactive performance by Eve Sussman, Simon Lee, and Volkmar Klien that transforms the audience into the performers. Join us on May 9, 10, and 11 to experience this unique participatory program, which places close consideration to control, agency, and community in our technologically mediated, networked society.
