3:56 AM

DEC 4, 2009 - DEC 5, 2009

GENE FRANKEL THEATRE

You’re in the Lower East Side of Manhattan. The clock reads 3:56 AM. If you’re up, something is probably happening. Something extraordinary. And that could be a good thing. Or a bad thing. Or something completely out of this world. Nine Shelter writers found inspiration in this magical time, painting stories from the familiar and funny to the hauntingly deranged.
