[NEohioPAL] "Ancestra" at Oberlin College, February 8-11!

[Hannah Dougall]

Oberlin College Theater invites you to attend the winter term mainstage
production of *Ancestra *by Holly Holsinger and Chris Szajbert, directed by
Anjanette Hall, with scenic design by Laura Carlson-Tarantowski, lighting
design by Jeremy K. Benjamin, and costume design by Chris Flaharty!

*SYNOPSIS*: Inspired by the 1853 National Women’s Rights Convention, *Ancestra
*weaves a historical account of the pioneers for women’s rights with the
intimate biography of a contemporary journalism student who writes about
reproductive healthcare. When Cora’s methods take an unconventional turn,
she is plunged into a crisis through which past and present begin to
converge, illuminating a long history of silencing women through
intimidation and violence. A sister production of Ancestra will perform at
Cleveland State University in February/March 2024.

February 8, 9, 10 at 7:30 PM
February 10, 11 at 2:00 PM
