Girl Shorts

The many facets of female lives are explored in Girl Shorts, a festival of one-act plays written by women and about women. The People's Center Theatre will host performers from Table Salt Productions, 20% Theatre Company, Gadfly Theatre Productions, Raw Sugar and more. The diverse line-up of lively and thought-provoking productions includes The Illuminati in Drama Libre by renowned experimental feminist playwright Alice Gerstenberg, Synchronicity, a plucky piece about 11-year-old would-be synchronized swimming champs and Perception is Reality, a story told through dance and movement brought to the stage by dance theater company Erin Sheppard Presents.
