Concrete Boom Volume 4

Three nights of cutting edge puppetry & visual theatre curated by Concrete Temple Theatre.
Concrete Temple Theatre launched Concrete Boom in 2018 to advance their goal of increasing the quality and prevalence of visual theatre works in NYC by supporting visual theatre works in their development. Visual theatre expresses ideas, thoughts, and feelings through puppetry, movement, images, mask work, scenography, and more.
Concrete Temple Theatre is an internationally acclaimed devised visual-theatre company. Known for defying conventional boundaries between design and text, CTT creates visually striking works that bring myth and ritual back to the center of dialogue in order to confront the prevailing social issues of our times. In NYC, CTT’s acclaimed productions such as Ernie’s Secret Life, PACKRAT, Hamlet Ride, Geppetto: Extraordinary Extremities, The Whale, and Bird Machinehave been presented at Dixon Place, La MaMa, HERE, SoHo Playhouse and Barrow Street Theatre. The company has had residencies at The Flea, Dixon Place, Mabou Mines, St. Ann’s Warehouse and chashama. CTT’s national tours include The Yard, Bard Summerscape, Detroit Institute of Arts, Amphibian Stage, and Pontine Theatre; and toured internationally to London, Sri Lanka, India, Bulgaria, Turkey, Italy, Scotland, South Korea, Mexico and Costa Rica.
Of CTT’s work, The New York Times wrote, “Thoroughly mesmerizing … amazingly expressive.”
