[Vivian Wilson]

Karamu Performing Arts Theatre opened its 2008/2009 Theatre season of "Hope
& Accountability" September 18th with the Midwest Premiere of Pulitzer prize
winner Lynn Nottage's "Fabulation, or the Re-Education of Undine" directed
by Caroline Jackson Smith.

 

The Obie award winning 2004 off Broadway hit "Fabulation, Or The
Re-Education Of Undine" opens the season of  Hope & Accountability  at
Karamu House, Cleveland's landmark multicultural theatre.  The show opened
September 18 and runs through October 11 in Karamu's Jelliffe Theatre.

 

"Fabulation" tells the story of an ambitious and haughty African-American
woman, Undine Barnes Calles, whose husband suddenly disappears after
embezzling all of her money. Pregnant and on the brink of social and
financial ruin, Undine is forced to go back to her family and child-hood
home in the inner city of Brooklyn's Walt Whitman projects, only to discover
that she must cope with a crude new reality. Undine faces the challenge of
transforming her setbacks into small victories in a battle to reaffirm her
right to be. FABULATION is a comeuppance tale with a comic twist.
