MANIFESTO

Al Límite is a placeless, borderless award-winning collective of multi-disciplinary, multi-lingual, international artists committed to building community resiliency through art and performance.
​
We devise performances, rituals and celebrations as acts of creative resistance in non-traditional public spaces and sites of injustice. We seek liberation through theater and the decolonization of the body in order to construct new work that centers the audience as active participants. We utilize our workshop intensives and community discussions in the process of investigation, as we figure out together how to create a theatrical offering that responds directly to the needs and desires of the impacted community.

HAPPENING

Brooklyn is Not a Sacrifice Zone
2023

 Brooklyn is Not a Sacrifice Zone is a live theater community-engaged performance that takes the audience along the banks of the Newtown Creek in the Nature Walk hearing the stories and visions of local residents and activists who dream to topple their neighbor, a giant fracked gas depot.  We imagine what the landscape could be if National Grid's site was decommissioned and the land rehabilitated.  In addition, it is also an audio archive that collects the stories of those residents, creating an online forum where others can listen and learn about the challenges in living alongside fossil fuel infrastructure and industrial wasteland.
