2023 Scene Events

SANCTUARY CITY

Saturday, November 4

5pm - Event
7:30pm - Performance

2001. Newark, NJ. Two teenagers, brought to America as children, now face an uneasy question: what are they willing to risk for a future together in the only country they've known? The simple joys of coming-of-age are challenged by the uncertainty of their next chapters. Pulitzer Prize-winner Martyna Majok brings light to the sacrifices made by DREAMers, lovers and lifelong friends in the heart-stirring and hopeful Sanctuary City—a story that fractures time and transcends memory—crossing boundaries, borders and genres in search of a place to call home.

What is The Scene?

Curated by our amazing Young Adult Council, Scene events are an amazing pre-show party connected to Steppenwolf productions! There will be pre-show activites, art-making, snacks, and conversations with the artists of the show led by our teens! Scene events are exclusive opportunity for teens to score a cheap ticket to the theatre, meet the artists involved with the play, and connect with like-minded teens.
