Meet the Peabody Sisters from the 19th Century. You probably haven’t heard of them. That’s the problem.
This original performance by Performers Exchange Project uses the story of Elizabeth, Mary and Sophia Peabody – remarkable female intellectuals and artists living in the 19th century – as a springboard for a vaudevillian fantasia on being a woman, an artist, an intellectual, and an American.
The original production of Our American Ann Sisters was developed in cooperation with Live Arts in Charlottesville. It premiered there in December 2009. Directed by Martha Mendenhall, Written by Jennifer Hoyt Tidwell, Performed by Sian Richards, Doreen Bechtol, Jennifer Hoyt Tidwell, Kay Ferguson and Jude Silveira.
Thursday & Friday, March 25 & 26 at 7:30 p.m.
