Kea and the Ark at Theatre Exile
Using electric cello, dance, puppetry, and storytelling, White Box Theatre tells the story of Kea Tawana. Kea single-handedly built an 86-foot-long, three-story ark in Newark’s Central Ward as an act of protest, tenacity, and imagination. Join us for this exquisite and intimate 60-minute performance that’s appropriate for all ages!
