The Shrill Collective Presents Ruby Rae Spiegel's DRY LAND For 2 Weekend Run

In its inaugural year, The Shrill Collective, co-founded by 6 female artists who met in their NYC acting class (Matthew Corozine Studio), has surpassed all expectations set by its founders whom began this journey to simply use their art to make a small difference in their community.

Now in their 2nd year, The Shrill Collective has produced 4 productions including 3 staged readings ("Lysistrata", "Trifles", "The Feigned Courtesans") and most recently, a sold-out weekend of "FIRSTS", a night of completely original monologues, poems, and songs about first experiences. Each Shrill production has raised funds to benefit a different organization including Safe Horizon, Girls Write Now, and Everytown.

This Friday, May 18th marks the opening of a 2 weekend run of their first fully staged play that will benefit The Reproductive Health Access Project (RHAP).
