An Ark

Now at The Shed, **An Ark** arrives in New York as a play built from research, testimony, and staged observation. It tracks how people try to preserve what they value when systems fail, treating “the ark” less as a vessel than as a method: catalog, shelter, selection, loss. The work sits in the city’s documentary-theater lineage, where public record and private memory share the same room. Its most telling move is its restraint, letting unresolved facts remain unresolved.
