Women+ on the
edge of democracy

Monday, November 2
7:00 PM

Women+ on the Edge of Democracy has brought together acclaimed women+ playwrights to create short plays that respond to shared questions about the state of democracy in America. Theatre artists in over forty states and several international locations will participate in the event before the elections. Ten selected newly-commissioned plays will be brought to life by Vivid Stage's 18-actor cast. 

Funny, fierce, intimate, unsettling, surprising, and deeply human, the plays approach democracy from wildly different directions. The work of the following playwrights will be included in Vivid Stage’s reading: Lauren Gunderson, Justice Hehir, Elizabeth Kuti, Kimber Lee, Sarah Mantell, Lynn Nottage, a.k. payne, Sarah Ruhl, Heidi Schreck, and Jenni Schwartz. Directed by Laura Ekstrand, the cast of eighteen actors will include: Michael Banza, Andrew Binger, Clark Carmichael, Ciara Chanel, Harry Patrick Christian, Sarah Cuneo, Andy Danford, Angela Della Ventura, Laura Ekstrand, Eli Ganias, Asia Jenine, Gail Lou, Scott McGowan, Jolee Morris, Saphire Oshun, Jason Szamreta, Harriett Trangucci and Emaline Williams.
