Karkoid the Automaton

EPIC After Dark

December 9

HERE

The story of a boy that was born a robot, struggling to find his place, and his voice, amidst the complicated social terrain of public school. Along the way, his logical and insightful mind impacts the lives of other struggling teenagers. It is a story about understanding a child that is different from us, the growing pains of adolescent identity, and the importance of striving to find the song inside you.

This annual EPIC Underground showcase features bold new work created and performed by our Players—monologues, spoken word, and solo pieces that turn lived experience into art. From personal revolutions to life-changing revelations, each performance is a window into resilience, creativity, and the power of storytelling. Join us for an evening where authenticity takes center stage and every voice has the power to ignite change.

Rent

June 4-14, 2026

ART/NY

EPIC is over the moon to bring Rent to life—a rock musical that reimagines Puccini’s La Bohème for New York’s East Village in the late ’80s and early ’90s. Just as Puccini told the story of struggling artists in 19th-century Paris facing tuberculosis, Rent follows a new generation battling HIV/AIDS, poverty, and the search for love and belonging. With unforgettable songs like “Seasons of Love” and “La Vie Bohème,” this Tony- and Pulitzer Prize-winning hit captures the raw energy, resilience, and heart of artists fighting to live and create.
