The new one-woman show, Representation and How to Get It, is an urgent story about women, voting rights, and democracy. Julia Ward Howe is rehearsing a talk she's about to give on representation for women when she has a prophetic vision of what will happen if this country remains an America for some of us, and not an America for all of us. And what - Julia asks - are we doing about it?
Inspired by Howe, a suffragist, abolitionist, human rights activist, and author of the Battle Hymn of the Republic, the play is a call to action in our own time. It was developed in collaboration by performer Elaine Vaan Hogue, director Judy Braha, and playwright Joyce Van Dyke.
Representation and How to Get It will be performed off-Broadway as part of the United Solo Theatre Festival at Theatre Row on Saturday, October 29, at 8:30pm. The show runs 45 minutes. Tickets are $40 and may be purchased online at https://bfany.org/theatre-row/shows/united-solo-theatre-festival-2022/
