The Library Chronicles is a site-specific 4-play experience that will be produced in KFPLs Central Branch. Five of Kingstons top theatre companies (1 oversight, 4 producers) will each produce/perform 30 minute commissioned plays concurrently in and across the many nooks and crannies of the library. Audiences will follow actors through the many secret corners and hidden floors of the historic location, wherever the stories may lead them.
Logistically-speaking, audiences comprised of a max of 20 people and are led by a guide, following one play at a time. Each audience member will see two of the four shows on any given night. (Each play is performed twice in the evening.)
Ticket-buyers will be assigned to a track upon arrival at the show.
