WHERE WOMEN GO
WRITTEN BY TINA HOWE
DIRECTED BY AIMEE HAYES
FEB 9-FEB 25, 2024
Tina Howe’s last play, Where Women Go, tracks the journey of Zilla, a recently widowed New Yorker whose seemingly mundane daily routine is broken up by a visit to a dermatologist when an herb garden begins to sprout from her legs. She meets her friend at her new favorite lunch spot: Subway. Final stop, a mesmerizing street vendor, fixated by the city’s pageantry of plurality. The play features spontaneous group singing, bizarre food, a zither, a silent man wearing a parachute, and an awakening from absurdity to abundance, kindness to connection.
The Tent Theater Company nurtures, supports, and produces Elder American playwrights and cross-disciplinary theater makers, fostering community among them and promoting their artistry and wellness to the larger community. The Tent rests upon the three pillars of Creative Support, Service, and Advocacy to celebrate and attend to writers in the totality of their artistic journeys.
