Photos: First Look At Artemisia's GOODS By Lauren Ferebee At The Fine Arts Building

Artemisia will present a soundscape production of GOODS by Lauren Ferebee, directed by Erin Nicole Eggers. See photos from the show.

Performances are July 8th - July 28th, 2024 at the Little Studio in the Fine Arts Building at 410 S Michigan Ave. Press opening is Thursday, July 11th at 7:00 p.m.

Alexandria Moorman plays as Sam and Casey Dillard as Marla, two resilient women navigating the cosmos as seasoned trash collectors in the year 2100. Amidst the vastness of space, their compact spaceship serves as a sanctuary from the chaos of Earth’s turmoil. As they commemorate two decades of partnership, their routine anniversary route takes an unforeseen turn, thrusting them into a confrontation with the pressing issues they’ve sought to escape, including societal collapse and personal demons. Join them on a poignant exploration of friendship, identity, and the weight of the world they carry among the stars. Sarah Hensley joins as the Marla understudy.

Press opening is Thursday, July 11th at 7:00 p.m. Performances continue through July 28th: Thursday through Saturday at 7 p.m., Sunday at 2:30 p.m. All performances are Pay-What-You-Can.

The GOODS production team includes Lydia Moss (Dramaturg), Kyle Anthony Cortes (Sound Designer), and Julie Jachym (Production Manager) and Cordaro Johnson (Stage Manager).
