THE BREEZE BENDS THE GRASS on March 5-7

THE BREEZE BENDS THE GRASS
Presented by Falcon Theater
March 5-7
Newport

In 1915, there were a handful of women artists. Four of them changed the rules: Painter Marie Goth; Metal Artist Janet Payne Bowles; Landscape Artist Selma Steele; and Ceramacists, The Overbeck Sisters.

At turns poignant and hilarious, THE BREEZE BENDS THE GRASS is a musical and visual pastiche of the lives and struggles of women artists amidst the Arts & Crafts movement of the early 20th century and is the collaboration of three award-winning writers: composer, Krista Detor; author, Arbutus Cunningham and playwright T.K. Lee. The director, Danielle Bruce and cast of performers are stellar and this traveling show is funded, in part, by the Indiana Arts Commission Individual Artists Grant and Women’s Way.
