2024, SPRING
A documentary theatre project about the CUNY student Gaza solidarity encampments
Developed through The Civilians 2024-2025 R&D Group
On April 30th 2024, the NYPD raided CUNY's City College Campus and arrested 173 student protesters as part of an operation to crack down on pro-Palestinian activism on college campuses citywide. This was one of many violent police raids of student protest encampments throughout the United States. This investigative theatre project explores student activism by telling the story of the City College police raid through the memories of student journalists, activists, faculty, and community members who were present that night.
"2024, Spring" has been presented at ART NY Studios as part of The Civilians 2024-2025 Findings Series and at NYU's Verbatim Performance Lab (2025). Read about the "2024, Spring" development process in "Revisiting the Liberated Zone" on The Civilians Extended Play.
