I’m absolutely delighted that my full-length drama stage play, THE WOMEN ON THE BRIDGE, was chosen as one of the two plays for The Athena Project’s Read ‘n Rant on March 16th.
In 1904, three young women plan their escape from a claustrophobic small New Hampshire town. In 1934, they’ve built new lives and loves in the Hudson Valley of New York. But their pasts are about to catch up with them.
This play was inspired by the Edvard Munch painting of the same name, which I spent a lot of time with during the Munch exhibit at the Clark Art Institute in Williamstown, MA.
I began writing the play during my time with Toronto’s Nightwood Theatre Creatryx Unit, and workshopped scenes there and with the Boiler House Poets Collective in residence at The Studios at MASSMoCA. I finished the first draft in the Dramatists Guild End of Play program, while I was part of the Northern Berkshire Artist Capacity Building Program.
I had such a great experience with the Athena Project in May of 2025, when they featured JUST A DROP, my play about Giulia Tofana. I ‘m very excited to be part of it again.
