Bone Sorrow: Fertile Ground 2024
Bone Sorrow, a trio of dark surrealist dramas presented by a diverse cast of performers, will premiere as part of Fertile Ground Festival 2024 on April 18 and 21, at Chapel Theatre in Milwaukie. Haunting and evocative, each of the three pieces focuses on women's experiences, and the transcendent nature of love and self-realization within grief and tragedy. “The Elder Tree” is set in a rural village hundreds of years ago, where life proceeds as usual until Bishop Grimald, charged by the church to root out demons and devils among the parishes, arrives with terrible intent. “Cleave” is a poetic and evocative ghost story, in which Mama tries desperately to support her daughter, Little Plume, despite their poverty-stricken and desperate circumstances. “A Circle of Stones” is a reflection of the playwright's own struggles with generational mental illness. Set in both the past and the present, this piece follows three generations of women: matriarch Rosemarie, a single mother; Camelia, her daughter who suffers from constant delusions; and Hyacinth, Camelia's daughter.
