SUMMARY:A Simple Herstory [Vassar’s Powerhouse Theater 2025]
DESCRIPTION:Part of The Muse Project and The Tank residency\nCreated by Jocelyn Kuritsky\nWritten by Jonathan A. Goldberg\nAdditional Conception and Consultation by Jenny Turner Hall\nDirected By Meghan Finn, Co-Directed by Donya K. Washington\nProduced By Jocelyn Kuritsky, Jenny Turner Hall, Donya K. Washington\nReturning to Powerhouse for additional episodes-in-progress is A Simple Herstory, a groundbreaking—Webby Award-honored, Anthem Award-winning and Telly Award-winning—multi-platform audio fiction exploration of the 100+ women who have run for President of the United States. Season 2 revolves around the life and times of Margaret Chase Smith who ran for President in 1964 and borrows from 20th century film styles to create a complex portrait of the Senator from Maine, challenging historical narratives, cultural assumptions, and entrenched myths about American politics. While taking a sharp look at the McCarthy era, this summer’s presentation will also be paired with a meta-theatrical reflection on history and politics—echoing the treacherous pitfalls of “hot takes” and the volatility of contemporary punditry.\n\n
