ABOUT

Awakened without his memory on a lone subway car, one man’s past is conjured by two seemingly innocuous passengers who begin to unravel with him. We Are Being Held takes place on a subway,
yet there is rarely mention of that. It is firmly rooted in the numerous, minute and momentary connections that pass between us en route, but it is not confined within the walls of a train.

Yes, it is an original piece of theater about human connection.
Yes, it began as a subway play.
Yes we will go off the rails.

Coffee Cup will present this next original work as part of the
undergroundzero festival at Performance Space 122
