LOVE IS REVOLUTION. 

Politics, passion, money, revenge, rebellion, deceit, and ten tons of love provide the powder keg of Empirical Rogue’s inventive take on Romeo and Juliet. The site-specific, immersive production unfolds from the moment  audience members step inside the abandoned garage, formerly Moe’s Taxi, in Long Island City.  A Romeo and Juliet so clear and relevant, you'll think it's your family teetering on the brink, your friends in mortal danger, your greatest love affair.

Four actors – Jacob Martin (Romeo), Susannah Hoffman (Juliet, Mercutio), Sarah Baskin (Nurse, Tybalt, Paris) and Doug Chapman (Friar, Benvolio) – perform all of the roles in the classic play.

“THE CITY CLUB” is a twisting noir morality tale of intrigue, murder, corruption and sex supported by one of the most seductive blues and jazz scores written for the stage in decades.   It is the story of CHARLES “CHAZ” DAVENPORT, a young privileged scion of a spectacularly corrupt family whose vice grip on their city is as tight as it is inescapable.  The sins of the father have visited unimaginable wealth on the son.   Obsessed with music and the people who write it, play it, sing it and worship it; Chaz has opened The City Club, a Mecca of pure and unbridled musical genius, opportunity and escape.   The club’s instant success attracts his father’s enemies who bring with them extremely creative and very effective revenge tactics.
The universe inside the club spirals as low as city outside.
