Title: 45 Plays for America’s First Ladies
Venue and Format: Livestream
Innovation: This play follows an identical format as its predecessor, with a chronological series of 1-5 minute play that – in typical neo style – adopt a variety of shapes, tones, and theatrical conventions.
45 Plays for America’s First Ladies leaps from comic to tragic as it surveys the lives of the women who have served (and avoided serving) as first lady, from Martha to Melania. A biographical, meta-theatrical, genre-bending ride through race, gender, and everything else your history teacher never taught you about the founding of America.
