Join us for new works in progress created by the 2022-23 McKnight Theater Artist Fellows. This event is an opportunity for these artists to lead the creation of brand new performance pieces with local and national collaborators.
ANYA
created and performed by Meghan Kreidler
Club owner, band manager, fashion designer, actress, photographer, dominatrix, provocateur. “It Girl” Anya Phillips, a Taiwanese-American, defined New York’s downtown punk and no-wave scene of the late 70s and early 80s, yet has remained widely unknown due to her early death at age 26. ANYA begins to bring the many facets of Phillips’ story to life through original music.
HANDPRINTS
written and performed by Greta Oglesby
Handprints is a two-person autobiographical play, written and performed by Greta Oglesby. The humorous and poignant play draws on Oglesby’s life and family adventures through Greta’s unique style of storytelling, laced with puppetry and original songs. She is thrilled to announce that Handprints will premiere in the History Theatre’s 2024 season!
LANGUAGE OF LIGHT
by Wendy Weckwerth
Inspired by Maurice Maeterlinck's symbolist classic The Interior, Language of Light (working title) is a screenplay co-created by Wendy Weckwerth and Jackson Gay. Emotionally charged and spare, Language of Light, like its inspiration, unfolds along a simple action: delivering devastating, life-changing news.
