the arts just keep on comin' - @PS 69 this weekend

YOU ARE NOW THE OWNER OF THIS SUITCASE...

A young woman arriving from Ecuador accidentally switches suitcases with a mysterious stranger. Her quest to recover the missing suitcase will lead her to encounter lovers, dreamers, fighters, a magical cell phone, books that come to life, and the best guitar player in the world.
Picking up where last year’s 167 Tongues left off, You Are Now The Owner Of This Suitcase is the
second part of a trilogy exploring the emotional geography of Jackson Heights, Queens, the most culturally diverse neighborhood in the world.
