In this extraordinary new work from Ildiko Nemeth, Lisa Giobbi, and the New Stage Theatre Company, classic theatre and ungrounded aerial movement elements combine in a powerful meditation on the history of women in the world. Lists of Promise is inspired and informed by texts including When God Was a Woman by Merlin Stone and “A Room of One’s Own” by Virginia Woolf and original writing by Marie Glancy O’Shea. It invokes the lost goddesses of ancient civilizations as it explores what Woolf called the “accumulation of unrecorded life” – the immemorial anonymity of women who have “sat indoors all these millions of years, so that by this time the very walls are permeated with their creative force.” In a series of scenes by turns beautiful, funny, and moving, a Contemporary Woman questions the expectations and judgments placed on women. Her journey across origin stories, past eras, and present crises is ultimately a quest to find a meaningful vision of hope.
