New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani handed out 1,500 free tickets to the Under the Radar festival at Brooklyn College on Friday, underscoring the administration's push to make the arts accessible to all New Yorkers. 

The festival, one of the largest theater festivals in the nation, is presenting RECONSTRUCTING at the Flatbush campus. 

“The arts are too often considered a luxury for the wealthy or a treat for the tourists, rather than a form of expression, joy, and relaxation that every New Yorker deserves,” said Mamdani said in a statement. “I am grateful for Under the Radar’s generosity and their work to share the experience of live theater citywide and am ready to build upon these efforts to make art accessible and affordable across our five boroughs.”

New Yorkers can claim their free tickets at UTRfest.org/under-the-radar-for-all while they are available.
