Tourist Trap
7 – 8:30PM
TOURIST TRAP, a new play by Elijah Guo, is having its Off-Broadway premiere at Ars Nova’s ANT Fest on June 12 only!
Grace, Deborah and Shu-Ling are trapped in Times Square. Will they find the World’s Largest Applebee’s before it’s too late? In TOURIST TRAP, three Asian-American mothers reckon with identity crises, a creeping sense of dissociation…and a seedy, off-brand Elmo who won’t leave them alone.
Tickets are pay-what-you-can starting at $5, but 100% of proceeds go to the artists, so more is welcome! There’s also a bar onsite plus an after-party open to the attendees.
Written by Elijah Guo
Directed by Dylin Taylor
