ColLab
An Experimental Workshop
Through a mixer-like setting, “ColLab” will help cultivate and connect NYC-based artists of various disciplines to create innovative pieces. Let’s connect, create and collaborate!
Created and developed by Off The Lane’s Community Coordinator, Sophie Brubaker, you are invited to connect with artists, share stories, practice, and conceptualize a potential collaborative project. These interdisciplinary artists will include, but are not limited to actors, singers, musicians of any and all genres, dancers, visual artists, and filmmakers.
We envision creating new works of performing and visual arts that are cross-genre, cross-discipline, and cross-cultural in a way that unifies the arts and gives new voices and partnerships a platform that they’ve never had before.

Paint & Sip
Another mixer! We welcomed a friendly group of artists across all disciplines for an evening of mingling, painting, and sipping!
DAVE MALLOY’S GHOST QUARTET
Our next ColLab production is an exploration of a selection of songs from Dave Malloy’s Ghost Quartet, featuring professional actors, live music, and dancers participating in a dance painting practice to create visual art pieces. The performance and art pieces will be presented on June 3rd, 2023 at 7:30pm and 8:30pm, with the visual works available for auction throughout the evening. Doors open at 7:15pm for performance #1 and 8:15pm for performance #2.
If you choose to purchase tickets to both performances, our stellar cast will take on new roles, and perform with new set pieces and staging.
A NIGHT OF SPIRITS
Created by Ryan Gerberding, A Night of Spirits will be one night only, featuring shows and spirits! Audience members will have the opportunity to view three 1-on-1 performance pieces from dancers, musicians, and actors.
The audience will gather in a shared space for drinks and socializing, and then they will be individually invited to experience each of their 1-on-1 performances over the course of the night.
ColLab Workshop #2 – July 12, 2022
ColLab s for creatives who are interested in finding collaborators for their artistic projects. We created an environment where creatives could meet collaborators for their artistic projects. Our attendees mingled and tossed around ideas. And now, we have our first idea seed! Stay tuned for more details… Our focus is interdisciplinary, innovative new work! Artistic exploration and experimentation is deeply encouraged! And if you’re unsure if you’re right for this community and this event, the answer is that YOU ARE. We want you and all your beautiful ideas. See ya there!
