YOU TOOK A PART OF ME GET TICKETS October 23, 25 & 26 / 7:30pm New York Live Arts

Tonight, we welcome you to an other-worldly space, where nothing is literal but everything is real. You'll meet a ghost, haunted by past pain and regret. Her double embodies her internal conflict. You Took a Part of Me updates ancient Noh theater conventions for modern life. Traditionally, Noh protagonists are women, performers male. Stories are loosely based on The Tale of Genji , an 11th century novel that begins and ends with the tormented ghost of Lady Rokujō. Over 1000 years later, this ghost, interpreted by the indomitable Megumi Eda, will achieve liberation and harmony. Join us .
