City of Asylum brings an impressive mix of diverse and internationally-acclaimed writers to its Alphabet City stage throughout the year, but at Staff Showcase: Artists of COA, it’s the folks behind the scenes who will be in the spotlight. Employees at the local community-based nonprofit include a variety of talented writers, poets, actors, and artists who will step out from behind the curtain to take the stage, along with City of Asylum’s current exiled writers-in-residence Osama Alomar and Tuhin Das. Expect an evening of songs, readings, and performance art.
