October 17th - Sunday : Special Theatre Event - Wish I Had A Sylvia Plath
"a moving meditation on the difficulties of combining creativity and domesticity...Cleverly combining film with live action, the show veers wildly- like Esther's mind- between farce and tragedy? I left the theatre with a lump in my throat."- The Guardian
The members of the Smith Club of NYC are invited to experience Wish I Had a Sylvia Plath, starring Elisabeth Gray, and written by Edward Anthony, this year’s winner of the prestigious Edinburgh Festival Fringe First Award for Outstanding New Writing. The one-woman play, a work of fiction, follows Esther Greenwood (the heroine of Plath’s The Bell Jar) as she attempts to mix, blend and whip her memories, fantasies and illusions into the most perfect poem of her life.
Following the performance, Club members will be treated to a talk-back by Ms. Gray and a Plath scholar TBA.
Date - October 17, Thursday
Time – 3:30 pm
Location – 59 E 59 Theaters, 59 East 59th Street (between Madison & Park), New York
Tickets: $25.00 at the door (click here to buy tickets in advance)
Please let us know that you will be there: webmaster@smithclubnyc.org
A committed educator and Oxford alum, Elisabeth Gray has led children's drama therapy workshops from the American West Coast to orphanages in Russia. See www.newumbrella.org
