About this Event

Halfway between really funny devised theater and community disaster prevention, Flood Sensor Aunty is a play about how the best way to protect yourself from flooding, climate change, and despair is through knowing your neighbors. About a flood sensor working at her aunt’s chai store who really wants to be a movie star, expect to leave nourished with bellies full of free (oat milk) chai, laughs, emergency management resources and materials, and calls to action to activate community members about climate justice in your neighborhood. Written and directed by public artist and urban planner Sabina Sethi Unni, this play is created in partnership with NYC Emergency Management, Rebuild by Design, the Waterfront Alliance, the Billion Oyster Project, Queens College, the Wellesley College Theater, Culture Push, and more.


This performance is part of Snug Harbor Earth Day Celebration.
