Show Information

By Kwame Kwei-Armah

Alfred, a West Indian immigrant living in London, is gruff, grumpy, and tired of growing old. When his daughter hires a young caregiver from Poland to look after him, he is forced to reckon with his past. This humorous and moving family drama explores the powerful grip of memory and longing that lies at the heart of all immigrant experiences -- and what can happen when, at any age, we welcome new possibilities. New York premiere.

Air Filtration and Other Measures:

In consultation with heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) experts, we have worked to find the best solution to make the barn safer. Air filtration has been upgraded and air circulation has been modified to ensure increased exchange of inside and outside air. We've also installed high-intensity UVC light inside the ductwork to remove airborne and surface contaminants.
