SUMMARY:Concord250 Event: Where We Belong\, New England Premiere!
DESCRIPTION:For MA250 The Umbrella has programmed two events – a stage company production and an exhibit – to celebrate and amplify voices that have not historically been a part of the revolution story…which is in line with the celebration goals of the 250 plans. \nAn indigenous theatre-maker journeys across geographic borders\, personal history\, and Cultural legacies in search of a place to belong. \nIn 2015\, Mohegan theatre-maker Madeline Sayet traveled to England to pursue a PhD in Shakespeare\, echoing the path her ancestors took in the 1700’s and leading to a remarkable journey of self-discovery. This ground-breaking\, one-woman event weaves together humor\, searing insight\, and the timeless power of story-telling\, to explore the importance of honoring our roots and the universal quest for belonging/where we belong. \nFollowing its acclaimed tour\, developed in partnership with Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company in association with The Folger Shakespeare Library\, with performances at Seattle Rep\, Chicago’s Goodman Theatre\, New York’s Public Theater\, and more\, The Umbrella is proud to present the play’s New England Premiere in a new production. \nUmbrella Arts\, Black Box Theater \nBy Madeline Sayet\, Directed by Tara Moses \nRuns February 28- March 23\, 2025
