Showcasing the city’s most exciting artists working in dance, puppetry, music, and more!

Thank you to all who joined us for the second edition of Sugar Sugar!—a free outdoor performing arts series that took place from June 3 through June 25, 2026. The series showcased experimental performances spanning theater, dance, music, and puppetry, transforming Domino Square’s waterfront amphitheater into a festive, open-air stage for new performances, from sexy and brazen to joyful and absurd. Over four weeks, on Wednesdays and Thursdays at sunset, artists working across dance, puppetry, theater, performance art, and music premiered performances conceived specifically for the park. Each week’s performances extended the legacy of North Brooklyn’s vibrant creative community, foregrounding artists who continue to shape the neighborhood’s avant-garde performance culture. Sugar Sugar! is organized by Public Assembly. The 2026 edition team included founder Annabel Thompson; curators Alessandra Gómez and Theresa Buchheister; creative producer Nora Chellew; head of production Alexandra Winters; administrator Maggie MacTiernan; production coordinator Dylan Sherman; production assistants Jamie Craib and Lucy Rice; stage manager Cassiel Fawcett; scenic consultant Cate McCrea; lighting design by Revolutionary Lighting; and technical production by Devlin’s.
