An 'Epic' Return to the Stage

Cityscape

Curtains are rising again at New York City theaters. Epic Players is among the companies returning to the stage after the COVID-19 pandemic upended live performances. The Brooklyn-based theater company was founded five years ago to provide opportunities for performers with developmental disabilities to represent themselves on stage and screen. Epic Players will be performing its show EPIC Villains: A Wickedly Inclusive Cabaret at Joe’s Pub at the Public Theater on October 24th and 25th at 8 pm. Joining us on this week’s Cityscape are Aubrie Therrien, Executive Artistic Director at EPIC Players, and Ellie Sondock, a New York-based neurodiverse actress and proud member of EPIC Players.
