RSVP for Event
Join acclaimed vocal artist and Bronx resident Jeanai La Vita as she leads The Séance, a visually stimulating, semi-improvised theatrical concert event featuring her ensemble of renowned musicians and film. The Séance delivers messages from deceased individuals communicating with the living from the beyond. This performance experience is deeply rooted in creative, social justice advocacy with a twist of afterlife levity. It is designed so that performers, audience members and guests from the beyond are engaged, communicating and listening in a uniquely open way, not any one of us knowing exactly what to expect. It is an exhilarating shared experience for all.
