New College graduate and interdisciplinary ecological performance artist Raychel Ceciro is presenting the world premiere of “Make Thee An Ark,” a piece she created with Logan Gabrielle Schulman at Selby Gardens’ Historic Spanish Point. Presented in Mary’s Chapel, the play is set 300 years in the future in a new ark floating above an undersea Florida and carrying what may be the last representatives of humanity after global warming. The play will be presented Friday through Sunday and Oct. 15-17. It combines storytelling with immersive performance, projection and puppetry and builds from histories involving the Spanish Point campus, 337 N. Tamiami Trail, Osprey. Tickets are $20. A free panel discussion called Ark Dialogues will be held at 2:30 p.m. Oct. 17. For ticket information: tinyurl.com/maketheeanark.
