Three coworkers against one tourist trap
In the center of Hudson Yards stands a honeycomb of interconnected stairs known simply as the Vessel. The 150-foot installation opened in 2019, then shut down again and again, becoming an unexpected viral obsession and a public controversy.
Inspired by these true events, three minimum-wage parks employees find themselves at the center of attention in The Vessel. The unlikely trio works together in hilarious and surprising ways as they navigate through and beyond the structure that looms over their every move.
A new play based on an infamous New York landmark, from the Drama Desk-nominated creators of A Eulogy for Roman.
