ABOUT LIVE FEED: The Live Feed creative residency program is a laboratory for the development of new commissioned work directed toward the New York Live Arts (NYLA) theater. Informal public showings offer a sneak peek into each resident artist’s process and ideas before they hit NYLA’s stage. Each showing takes place within the intimate working space of the Live Arts studio and is followed by a discussion with the artist moderated by special guests and Live Arts staff.
