Located in a newly renovated 1920s Art Deco concert hall in Downtown Brooklyn, the new Roulette features two levels of seating for up to 400 people (600 standing), an expanded multi-channel sound system, projection screen for film and multi-media events, state-of-the-art lighting system, modular stage, and a specially designed floor to accommodate dance. Teamed with bold new programming, the new Roulette promises to be one of the most exciting places in New York City - if not the country - to experience adventurous music and art. Join us as we kick off our inaugural season with a huge four night Grand Opening Celebration!

WE'RE OPENING UP OUR NEW BROOKLYN HOME FOR A TWO DAY CAGE-IAN MUSICIRCUS - A SNEAK PEEK BEFORE OUR OFFICIAL GRAND OPENING IN SEPTEMBER!
FREE!
June 4th & 5th
1:00 - 6:00PM
Although we don't officially open until mid-September, we're opening up our new concert hall in Brooklyn for a two day John Cage Musicircus. Please join us on June 4th & 5th for this special occasion!
A carnival of all things experimental, the Roulette MUSICIRCUS brings a cornucopia of musicians, dancers, video artists, and performance artists from all corners of New York City's artistic community together for a celebration of chaos and and the harmonies of simultaneity.
First performed in 1967, John Cage's MUSICIRCUS is simply an invitation for performers to assemble and play together - a "happening" where multiple performances occur simultaneously to create new and unusual configurations.
A collage of genres and forms, the Roulette MUSICIRCUS will unfold over the course of two full day events, with the audience invited to wander freely and choose their own sonic and visual relationships.
This will be the first event in Roulette’s newly renovated, wonderful space, and is presented as Roulette’s contribution to the Atlantic Ave Art Walk.
Participating artists include (more TBA):
Brown Wing Overdrive, Ha Yang Kim, Matana Roberts, Fast Forward, MV Carbon, Margaret Leng Tan, Shelley Hirsch, Michael Evans, Tristan Perich, Loud Objects, Anthony Coleman, Natalie Elizabeth Weiss (Unicornicopia), Twisty Cat, Ashcan Orchestra, Zach Layton, Keiko Uenishi (o.blaat) + Melissa Lockwood + Ana Santos, Greg Fox, Katherine Liberovskaya, Maria Chavez/Shelley Burgon (MERCE), Stephe Cooper / Kagel Nacht, Shiraishi Tamio, Himalayas, Miguel Gutierrez, Brad Henkel, Zeljko McMullen, Katie Young + Clara Latham + Michael Weyandt, Lucas Geronomus, Heather Vergotis, Cori Olinghouse, Abraham Gomez Delgado, Alfredo Ma, Dan Joseph, Gabrielle Herbst, Michael Gallope, Michael Waller, Sam Mickens, Daniel Fishkin, Tristan Shephard, Zach Mangan/Secret Architecture, Jennifer Monson, Koosil-ja, Liliana Dirks-Goodman, Mariana Valencia and more!
