Everyday Inferno Theatre Company
Quicksand
Dec. 1-15 2018
IN RESIDENCE: November 27, 2018 – December 17, 2018
Regina Robbins’ Quicksand tracks the journey of Helga Crane, daughter of a Danish white mother and West Indian black father, as she searches for a community of her own. Crane’s travels take her through black, white, and predominantly male-dominated populations of the deep South, Denmark, and New York, eventually returning her to the same place she started – still other, still alien, still unfulfilled. Dynamic staging and an electric ensemble reflect the constant motion and deep unrest that comes from trying to find one’s place in the world.

IRT Theater is a grassroots laboratory for independent theater and performance in New York City, providing space and support to a new generation of artists. Tucked away in the old Archive Building in Greenwich Village, IRT’s mission is to build a community of emerging and established artists by creating a home for the development and presentation of new work. Some of the artists we have supported include Young Jean Lee, Reggie Watts and Mike Daisey.
This program is supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in Partnership with the City Council, New York State Council on the Arts, and The Nancy Quinn Fund, a project of ART-NY.
PLEASE NOTE: All sales final and there is no late seating at IRT Theater.
