A wee update and success on the Magdalene Laundries. I've been writing, researching, meeting folks who've put me in touch with contacts from Ireland, the NYC solo show community and companies that are interested in pursuing theatre work about women who've been/continue to be oppressed all over the world. I will be doing a 20 minute staged performance of Magdalene at a solo show production space in NYC as part of a showcase of new work, which I'm super excited about! More to come....
If you want to learn more about the Magdalene Laundries, you can download a video for free through google called "Sex In A Cold Climate" with interviews of four of the Magdalene survivors. It's a pretty gruesome portrait of the Catholic Church too so beware.
