switch to a "moderated" subscription plan starting this
Sunday; new members will have to submit a statement and be reviewed
by New Edge Theater before admission. In the future membership will
only be by referral by a member.)

Members are in on the ground floor of an exciting new venture to
present virtual Nuyorican Theater globally through the Internet. The
group plans to go private as of September (when company director
Luis Chaluisan begins his doctoral studies) and unleash a three tier
streaming video and audio site wherein you can enjoy live
performances dating back to 1978 from the Extreme archive collection
in the privacy of your home.
