Jessica Blank and Erik Jensen's THE SURGE will have its World Premiere as a co-production between Minnesota's Guthrie Theater and The Public Theater in NYC in the winter and spring of 2027.

Conceived as a response to President Trump's dramatic increase in ICE action, the documentary work features verbatim excerpts of real interviews of people affected by Operation Metro Surge in the Twin Cities area. 

Licensing will be available shortly for productions beginning in late Spring 2027.
