Village Playwrights has announced an upcoming event, a reading performance of InclusIVitY - the Ivy Bottini Story, March 23, 2020.
Written in rhyme, as a series of poems/episodes, the play is a tribute to artist and activist Ms. Bottini, who co-founded the NYC Chapter of NOW. After coming out as a lesbian, Ivy was expelled from the organization by Betty Friedan.
Ivy toured the country with a one-woman show, fought California Prop 6 (An effort to remove gay teachers form the classroom) and California Prop 64 (An effort to require all HIV+ individuals to be registered). She is full of sass, fire and humor.
The play was produced in Central California and at the Emerald Theatre in Memphis.
Al Schnupp is a produced and published playwright. An art series by Mr. Schnupp resides permanently at the world-famous Actors Theatre of Louisville.
