Some years ago, a groundbreaking group of women artists determined to make art that could affect the world. They sent small wooden boxes to women throughout the world and asked them to create works of art around the idea of “Women Beyond Borders.” What came back started a global phenomenon — astonishing pieces, along with statements that were by turns exquisitely beautiful, deeply painful, joyously uplifting and full of heartbreak and anger.
In this world premiere, presented in the style of “The Vagina Monologues” and “Love, Loss and What I Wore,” actors perform stories, poems and songs about transcending geographical, emotional and spiritual barriers.
Featuring a new group of actors each week, including Tony, Emmy and Obie award-winners. This week’s cast: Cristina Frias, Jodi Kimura, Michael Learned, Ukla Simone Mohanty, Jennifer Leigh Warren.
Directed by Jenny Sullivan. Written by Claire Bowman, Karyl Lynn Burns, Lauren Patten and Beverly Ward, with additional material by Stephanie Coltrin and Sandra Tsing Loh.
Showtimes: Friday, May 17, at 8 p.m.; Saturday, May 18, at 2 and 8 p.m.; Sunday, May 19, at 2 p.m. Tickets: $25 to $55.
