EVE DESCENDED, NOW HEAR THIS...

So I recently directed a piece entitled Eve Descending that traced the lives of women in the Old Testament through dance, song, drama, and poetry. I commissioned each performer to discover, alone or in collaboration with others a voice for the story that had not been told in the Bible. It was amazing to see what such a group of spiritually diverse people were able to find in common. I'm currently looking for another venue to reproduce it.
