Coming to the CoHo Stage in March of 2022, join us for In the Name of Forgotten Wome<\/em>n, an original new work from Cindy Williams Guti\u00e9rrez.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

In the Name of Forgotten Women<\/em> bears witness to the global oppression of women and testifies to their resilience. Inspired by real-life incidents in over 15 countries, this dramatic work features the individual and collective voices of seven diverse women, culminating in a powerful call to action.  Dramatizing poetry with music, movement, ritual, and projection, this dynamic \u201cchoreopoem\u201d is, in essence, a ceremony to restore the Feminine in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Note from the Playwright-Producer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhen my poetry collection Inlay with Nacre: The Names of Forgotten Women was selected for publication, the voices in the book would not stop talking to me. Each night as I lay my head on the pillow, I could hear them. And then I began to see them. I saw and heard these stories embodied. Imagine seven diverse women, their voices, their faces, their bodies. Imagine them center-stage speaking their truth, moving together, moving through. Imagine them calling for action\u2014now.\u201d<\/em> – Cindy Williams Guti\u00e9rrez<\/p>\n\n\n\n
