The Fever

With The Fever, New York-based theater company 600 Highwaymen tests the limits of individual and collective responsibility — and our willingness to be there for one another. Performed in collaboration with the audience, this world-premiere production examines how we assemble, organize, and care for the bodies around us. Who will you be when our eyes are on you? What will we see when we all look your way?

600 Highwaymen is the moniker of theater artists Abigail Browde and Michael Silverstone, who have created seven original works since 2009, including The Record (Under the Radar Festival 2014) and Employee of the Year (UTR 2016). 600 Highwaymen has received an Obie Award, a Bessie nomination, and Zurich’s ZKB Patronage Prize. In 2016, Abigail and Michael were named fellows of the New York Foundation for the Arts.
