Shakespeare’s Other Women
by Scott Kaiser

Presented by Island Shakespeare Festival
Directed by:  Erin Murray

WICA welcomes ISF to its 2018-2019 Theatre Series with a return of Oregon Shakespeare Festival’s Scott Kaiser’s Shakespeare’s Other Women. Providing audiences with new perspectives of their favorite Shakespeare femmes - and introducing a few never before seen figures - Island Shakespeare Festival will remount it’s sold out 2018 production.

The story takes place on the night before the first folio is released in 1623, when Shakepeare’s editors John Heminge and Henry Condell discover a box of unused prose -  and the forgotten women of Shakespeare come to life through 36 heart-stopping soliloquies. Queens, wenches, goddesses, and everything in between spill forth into the hearts and minds of all who witness them. These forgotten voices combine to create a fiery unforgettable performance.

LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

Whidbey Island Center for the Arts would like to begin by acknowledging that we gather on the ancestral homelands, originally known as Tscha-kole-chy (SHA-KOL-CHI) in Lushootseed (LU-SHOOT-SEED), of the Coastal Salish Peoples, on the lands of the lower Skagit, Tulalip (tuh·lay·luhp), Swinomish (SWIN-ə-mish), Snohomish (snō-hō-mish), Stillaguamish (still-uh-GWAH-mish), and Suquamish (soo-kwah-mish), who have lived in the Salish Sea basin since time immemorial and have hunted, fished, gathered, and taken care of these lands.

We respect their sovereignty, their right to self-determination, and we honor their sacred spiritual connection with the land and water.

Please join us in expressing our deepest respect and gratitude to the indigenous people of this territory and for their enduring care and protection of the land in which we currently occupy and share through the Treaty of Point Elliott signed by 82 tribes in Múckl-te-óh (Mukilteo) on January 22, 1855.
