Opening January 13 in the Allie Kussin Main Gallery: Kat O’Connor, Twice the Speed of Bliss. Opening February 28 in the Black Box Theater: Where We Belong, a New England premiere by Madeline Sayet, directed by Tara Moses. An indigenous theatre-maker journeys across geographic borders, personal history, and cultural legacies in search of a place to belong. In 2015, Mohegan theatre-maker Madeline Sayet traveled to England to pursue a PhD in Shakespeare, echoing the path her ancestors took in the 1700s, leading to a remarkable journey of self-discovery. This ground-breaking, one-woman event weaves together humor, searing insight, and the timeless power of story-telling, to explore the importance of honoring our roots and the universal quest for belonging/where we belong.
