I . THE TREATMENT
Starring Michelle Jedrzejewski and Peter McLaren.
This two-character drama delves into the layers of power, fear and intimacy that exist between a traumatized soldier (and former military interrogator) and the female psychiatrist who is assigned to give him routine treatment. The Treatment is an exploration of accountability, duty and a soldier's observations about the commission of atrocities in the name of democracy.
II . THE GOOD BODY
Starring Melissa Beckford, Annalena Bradfield, Jasmine Burns, Amy Connolly, Alex Dallas, Victoria Danyluk, Sochi Fried, Lindsey Higgs, Mary Goldman, Larissa Koniuk, Lisa Marshall, Laura McCarthy, Alicia Payne, Silvia Remkins and George Root.
Playwright Eve Ensler turns her unique eye to the entirety of the female form -- from Bombay to Beverly Hills, botox to burkas. From honest, insightful, and sometimes titilating accounts of personal experiences, to riveting testimonials from around the globe and tales of real-life obsession, Ensler strips the complicated issue of body politics down to its intimate essence.
EVE Underground is presented with the support of Philip Akin, Artistic Director of Obsidian Theatre Company, Allen MacInnis, Artistic Director of Lorraine Kimsa Theatre for Young People, and Eve Ensler.
