HOLD STILL Comes to the United Solo Show Festival

Susan Kuralt will present Hold Still, a play about speaking truth in the face of societal pressure to remain silent, as part of the annual United Solo Show Festival, March 7 through March 26, 2023. Hold Still will be presented Saturday, March 18th (7:00pm), at Theatre Row Performing Arts Center, 410 W. 42ndStreet, New York, NY 10036.

Hold Still is about the tragic clash of irreconcilable differences among three generations of women who are deeply bound to one another. Through the lens of their different generational perspectives, each woman tells the story of the public disclosure of a disturbing family secret. As each woman shares her unique version of the story, the piece gradually paints an unsettling yet compassionate picture of the complex reasons we sometimes remain silent in the face of harm.
