Playwrights Realm ETC Night
A NEW play?! ETC + Playwrights Realm
New Playwright + Super Old Playwright= FREE DRINK!
This play is inspired by the first western woman playwright we know of –– Hrothsvita of Gandersheim, writing in the 900’s! –– and her play Abraham, or the Rise and Repentance of Mary.
Join us & Playwrights Realm for“Expand the Canon Night” at
MARY GETS HERS
The Robert W. Wilson MCC Theater Space

It’s the 10th century! A plague rages on in Germany! Everyone is turning into foam! When two overzealous hermits find an abandoned orphan named Mary, they scheme a saintly rescue mission to protect her purity at any and all costs. Mary, however, has other plans for herself, in this new play.
Celebrate with us after the show for a drink & discuss how this
new take on a classic play helps EXPAND THE CANON!
Then join us later in the month for the
