Chance Muehleck and Melanie Armer\, co-founders of The Nerve Tank\, have adapted the project in response to the public’s new normal\, which relies on technology more than ever to communicate and connect with others. And the concept of waiting\, which was so vital to the original piece\, has taken on a whole new meaning. \nViewers will be able to influence the piece by sending text messages to the performers from 12-6pm EST every Wednesday in June. The performers can only respond with their bodies\, each streaming in from the safety of their own homes. A recording of the live broadcast will be played every Sunday\, 12-6pm EST. \nTune in to experience this new performance that encourages a moment of reflection about the new world we live in. \nSee the performance LIVE above every Wednesday in June\n6/3\, 6/10\, 6/17\, 6/24\n12- 6PM EST \nWatch the REBROADCAST of the performance on Facebook every Sunday in June\n6/14\, 6/21\, 6/28\n12- 6PM EST \nView the program here. \nAbout The Nerve Tank \nNamed One to Watch in 2010 by BroadwayWorld\, The Nerve Tank is a world-class innovator in theatrical performance.
