Oculus Outdoor Screening: Taylor Mac’s 24-Decade History of Popular Music

Join us for a free outdoor screening of Taylor Mac’s 24-Decade History of Popular Music at World Trade Center’s North Oculus Plaza, presented in partnership with The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey as part of their 2025 Oculus Outdoors movie series.

Taylor Mac’s 24-Decade History of Popular Music was a decade in the making and captures Mac’s lens on the entirety of US history from 1776 to the present day. The 24-hour live show, comprising over 240 songs and performed by Mac and a huge supporting cast, was performed only once in its entirety in Brooklyn, NY. Oscar-winning filmmakers Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman adapt this tour de force performance in all its righteous outrage and radical humanity in this feature-length documentary. Click here to watch the trailer.
