Oye Group presents the third-annual One Catches Light Festival, celebrating new solo work of five performers. In this years installment, each artist addresses the topic of reparations in collaboration with JACKs year-long performance and conversation series Reparations365.

SHOWS:

-Chelsea Dee Harrison channels international jewel thief Doris Payne in The Guide to Getting What's Yours.

-In One of You Is Fake, Beth Graczyk takes an earnestly absurdist look at the future of mankind in a piece that is part science lecture, part song, and all physical movement epic.

-In BBC, A.B. Lugo explores the mystique behind what he calls that most dangerous yet heavily sought-after item: the BBC.

-Kelvin Grullon brings to life an excerpt from Junot Diaz Pulitzer Prize-winning novel The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao, adapted and directed by Elise Thoron. Courtesy of Literature to Life and Young Audiences NY.

-Comedian/curator Neruda Williams delivers a night of laughs with Addendum: Nigga, Please.
