Today's interview is with Patricia Sidman and Alicia Chaisson concerning their upcoming theatrical collaboration, There’s More to the Story by Patricia Drury Sidman, directed by Alicia Chaisson. We discussed the work itself, its creative origins, and the fantastic actresses that are bringing it to life.
"There’s More to the Story by Patricia Drury Sidman tells the stories of seven very different historical women (that is, presumably historical, since nobody knows for sure) found in fragments, footnotes, and brief passages of the Christian and Hebrew Bibles and in other scriptural texts and surrounding legends. These stories - of abandonment, betrayal, loss, brutality, tenderness and hope - have been told and retold for centuries … or not."
Location: Cité des Arts, 109 Vine St., Lafayette in the Robert D. Sidman theater.
Dates: November 1 and 2 at 7:30 p.m.-9:30 p.m. and November 3 at 2:00 p.m.-4:00 p.m.
