Rheology
The Bushwick Starr presents
a co-production with HERE and Ma-Yi
RHEOLOGY
Written and Directed by Shayok Misha Chowdhury
in collaboration with Bulbul Chakraborty
RHEOLOGY (world premiere) written and directed by Pulitzer Prize finalist and Obie Award winner Shayok Misha Chowdhury (Public Obscenities at Soho Rep, Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company and Theatre for a New Audience) and was singled out as one of the best theater works of 2023 by The New Yorker.
In RHEOLOGY, Misha joins forces with his physicist mother, Bulbul Chakraborty. Bulbul is obsessed with the mystery of sand: how it flows, like a liquid, but then jams into a solid. Misha is obsessed with his mother. But they’re running out of time. In this boundary-pushing new collaboration, an artist son challenges his scientist mother to a high-stakes experiment.
THIS PLAY IS PERFORMED AT THE BUSHWICK STARR IN BROOKLYN.
