Inheritance: A Litany

Jul 18, 2026, 7:30 PM – 9:00 PM – $25

The critically-acclaimed, multi-award-winning Inheritance: A Litany is a personal narrative, dance-opera, non-linear play, and comic drama. The interdisciplinary tour-de-force, that premiered Off-Broadway, honors the parent-child relationship, its psychologies, and its histories—comedic, deeply intimate, and yet also universal. The text material is based on lists Ms. Brenner began making, noting rather profoundly how she had become her parents—and how we inherit not only parts of our parent’s physical, psychological, behavioral, emotional traits, but also their objects, belongings, even thoughts and ways of being in the world, while also uncovering what make us each unique, complicated human beings. “We need artists like Ms. Brenner now in this world.” C. Darling, All About Solo, NYC.
