PERFORMANCE

Page Hall, 135 Western Avenue, University at Albany downtown campus.
 "City Water Tunnel #3" - a one woman play about "work, water, and
the human spirit" -  written and performed by Marty Pottenger.   The
Obie Award-winning  "City Water Tunnel #3" tells the story, in the
voices of workers, of the building of a new aqueduct to add to New

tunnel workers and personal observations Pottenger examines the
history of the planning, building and financing of the largest
non-defense public-works project in the Western Hemisphere.
