At the end of Conover Street in Red Hook, Brooklyn, on the waterfront, there is a bar called Sunny’s. For over one hundred years, it’s been run by one family, through booms and busts, prohibition and pandemics, blight and gentrification. It’s been home to dreamers and immigrants, artists, bootleggers, longshoremen, union bosses, corrupt police, numbers runners, bluegrass musicians, and hipsters. And to Tone Johansen, who fought to save it after Hurricane Sandy, against incredible odds.

The Wind and The Rain

Waterfront Museum

Inspired by hospices, mystics and trips to the cemetery, Age is a Feeling wrestles with our endless chances to change course while we’re alive. A covert rallying cry against cynicism and regret. A call to seize our time. Written and performed by Haley McGee (The Ex-Boyfriend Yard Sale) with original direction and dramaturgy by the late Adam Brace (Just for Us), this never-the-same-twice show is a gripping story about how our relationship with mortality shapes the way we live. Age is a Feeling premiered at the Edinburgh Fringe 2022, where it won the Fringe First Award, before transferring to the Soho Theatre in London for two sold-out runs.
