SCISSORING by Christina Quintana Directed by Rebecca Cunningham Presented as part of Columbia Stages' NEW PLAYS NOW Festival In SCISSORING, Abigail Bauer, a New Orleans native and resident, must confront the clash between the life she has created with her long term girlfriend and her career as a devoted teacher in a repressive Catholic school. Through her struggle, Abigail receives pressure from the school's shape-shifting, personified P.A. System and guidance from the figures of First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt and Roosevelt's devoted lifelong friend and once lover, Lorena Hickok. (SCISSORING has recently been chosen as a Finalist in the 2014 Alliance/Kendeda National Graduate Playwriting Competition) Studio Theater Pershing Square Signature Center 480 W 42nd St New York, NY 10036 FEATURING: Joe Cordaro Emily Everidge Ramona Floyd* Jeannine Foster-McKelvia Elizabeth Gray Jene Hernandez* Jonathan Hooks Phylis Rossi* *Appearing Courtesy of Actors' Equity Association CREATIVE TEAM: Matthew Groff, Producer Olivia Gemelli*, Stage Management/Sound Design Emily Asaro, Assistant Stage Management Evan Roby, Lighting Design Matsy Stinson, Costume Design Lucas Womack, Set Design Visit columbiastages.org for more information. | | |
