The FireHouse Arts & Events Center is excited to host this year’s Bellingham TheatreWorks Fairhaven Summer Repertory Theatre (FSRT) lineup featuring three award-winning works with women as central to each story.
FSRT themes consider the question of what happens when the choice between individual rights and responsibility to humanity becomes too knotty to unravel; Do we simply cut the ties? Or, do we carefully and intentionally untangle and examine the threads? How do we decide whose rights, are right?
Gidion’s Knot by Johnna Adams, directed by Kathryn Van Meter
Over the course of a parent/teacher conference, a grieving mother and an emotionally overwhelmed primary school teacher have a fraught conversation about the tragic struggles of the mother’s son. Gidion may have been bullied severely—or he may have been an abuser.
“eloquent study of people caught between the competing demands of reason, morality and family...harrowing...a narrative that is as elegant as it is chilling.” - Washington Post
