20th Century Blues | Virtual Dramatic Reading

20th Century Blues | Virtual Dramatic Reading

Four women, forty years of friendship, and one tradition. When one of them, a professional photographer, is offered a career retrospective, will the thing that’s been holding them together be the thing which tears them apart?

An impromptu behind-bars snapshot taken during a 1970s protest lockup sparks an eccentric, four-decade friendship. Every year, photographer Danny and her friends reunite to take a new photo showcasing their changing (and aging) selves. When Danny is offered a TED Talk career retrospective at MoMA, the ritual that has been the glue holding the women together for 40 years is now also what may tear them apart. The images unearth secrets and force the women to question who they are in this close-up on art, aging, and audacious friendship by two-time Obie Award winner Susan Miller.

Approximate run time: 1 hour, 40 minutes with NO intermission
