That’s Not Supposed to be Happening is a verbatim documentary theatre event that examines issues of housing in New York City. Co-created by Keith R. Huff & Joe Salvatore, the event is created from interviews conducted with New Yorkers about their experiences finding housing, securing it, and problems they encountered while living in it. The event is a performance and participatory experience that considers how we might advocate, navigate, and propagate collective idea-sharing to address the amassing housing issues people face while living in New York City.
