The Alcyone Festival 09

June 11 through July 18, 2009
For this years Alcyone Festival, we decided to play with the notion that women only write small domestic dramas, picking a theme as far away from that as possible: terrorism, the cult of martyrdom and its effects upon the innocents. The Alcyone Festival 2009 features six phenomenal writers from across the globe in rotating repertory.
Performances were at the Lincoln Square Theatre.
Shows:
The Black Eyed by Betty Shamieh
The Blessed Child by Astrid Saalbach
Bounty of Lace by Susan Merson
Fucking Parasites by Ninna Tersman
Heads by EM Lewis
The Toymaker's War by Jennifer Fawcett
