A festival of original plays written and directed by the 2023-2024 Incubator/Mentor Cohort performed in rotating repertory at 18th & Union
Three new plays by women and non-binary playwrights and directors.
The Uterine Files: Virginia Mary’s experiences echo through the lives of her descendants. Moving through time from 1863 to the present, this choreopoem’s stories of disruption demand an answer: what are they doing with our uteruses?
Carmilla: A camp-horror play based on the queer, female-centered, pre-Dracula vampire novella of the same name, introducing the mother of the modern monster and shattering the mold of male protagonists in horror.
On the Train: A timely indictment of medical racism as three women fight a hypocritical senator to secure the right for women to control and protect their own reproductive destinies.
