Many Tracks is a new venture with a wide open mission of discovering “Different Tracks to making Theatre”. This suggests not only a creative openness as far as the type or genre of work we are interested in – be it straight theater, musical theatre, solo performances, dance or a mix, but also pertains to our interest in exploring different ways on how theatre pieces are conceive. Please attend our new project, DANTON'S DEATH, TAKE 1 by Georg Büchner in a new translation by Katrin Hilbe.             What: An Equity Staged Reading             When: December 8th, 14th and 15th, at 7:00pm             Location: 45th Street Theatre, 354 W 45th Street, btw 8th & 9th             Admission: FREE             Reservations encouraged: Dantonsdeath1@gmail.com or 917-496 8795 Büchner is mostly known for his unfinished play Woyzeck, which was also made into an opera by Alban Berg. Danton's Death was his first completed work, written in 1835 when he was twenty-one years old. In New York it was produced as the inaugural production of Lincoln Center in 1965 and since then once by the Prospect Theatre company. ManyTracks is taking on this enormous piece - twenty-one actors playing up to fifty people and doing it in installments, in "Takes", as it were. Danton's Death is set in Paris during the "Reign of Terror" of the French Revolution. We follow the hero of the Revolution Georg Danton and his followers from the first inkling of doom to the accusation of high treason into prison and to the guillotine, all within two weeks, in the spring of 1794. The themes are love, life and death, what happens to political visions when violence becomes a legitimate means of politics, and what really matters when death is near. Please join us in the experience of this incredible piece of dramatic art!
	ABOUT MANY TRACKS: When it comes to selecting material, ManyTracks has no political agenda, no beliefs other than the steadfast conviction, that it’s the questions that matter, not the answers. The world is a complex place, and for every position, there exists its polar opposite. Rather than taking sides, ManyTracks is interested in pursuing projects, which focus on presenting these conundrums that make our world. There is no objective truth, the world is bigger than any one mind, one party line, gender, race, passion. It’s the kaleidoscope of dizzying “truths” and ways of doing things, that make our world, and ManyTracks is passionately in favor of seeing its audience talk, argue, think, open up its imagination to new ways of looking at things. If one result is Confusion, ManyTracks believes this to be closer to the truth than Message. Since also ManyTracks does not hold all the best ways of doing things in its palm, we are very interested in collaborating with other companies to pool both our creative resources but also our organizational necessities. In times as these we need to be creative about how we go about making art! Katrin Hilbe Founder and Director
