Based on the true story of an undocumented immigrant who endured an 81-hour ordeal of being trapped in a Bronx elevator,
Stuck Elevator captures more than just the physical struggles of Guang. He struggles with conflicts of a higher degree. Sounding
the alarm will open the doors to his freedom, but calling for help could translate into losing his freedom because of his
undocumented status as an immigrant. The production of Stuck Elevator brilliantly blends opera and solo performance conveys
the story of Guang's battle for freedom from debt, deceitful co-workers, human smugglers and the temptations of General Tso,
as Guang's attempts to escape become progressively fantastic. To experience this strikingly unique theater production, make
sure to reserve your tickets for the Stuck Elevator right here through StubHub. This is one theatrical masterpiece you don't
want to miss!
The story that surrounds Tuck Elevator is told through a remarkably unique blend of music. A scrap-metal percussionist,
cellist and violinist produce a mongrel sound that echoes the changing world in which the protagonist, Guang, lives: part
Chinese, part American, part Bronx, part heart, part shipping container, part elevator. Classical genres of Chinese theater
and opera and folk music meld together with lyrical melodies and metallic screams that contribute to the unrest of contemporary
urban reality. Stuck Elevator serves as a metaphor for the suspension between the upward mobility of the American dream and
the downward plunge into an empty abyss. It's a riveting tale you will be talking about long after it's over!
