Tonight there is finally video up on the Kickstarter site! I was beginning to feel like the boy who cried wolf! My youngest daughter, the very talented Genevieve Oswald (she was married one week after we staged the play) was I felt, the appropriate person to introduce you to The Land. The Land is after all about women taking the reigns of power and turning the tide from war to peace. Who better than my daughter to speak for me, the writer of this play about two mothers? This month is International Women's month and over the next few weeks, you'll meet a few of the extraordinary women who helped me bring this play to life! Genevieve is an actor, yoga practitioner and teacher (she co-owns Shree Yoga studio here in Taos) and more importantly, a good human being. I'm very proud of her and was honored to have her in the cast. Genevieve brought depth and breadth to the roles of Catherine and the Shekinah. She was also my sounding board and my trusted advisor throughout the entire process - beginning with the writing of the first drafts, right up until we got it on the boards! I'm so grateful to her.
Next week Ana Chavez who played Amirah, will be speaking about The Land with Anpo Cash who took on the roles of Hagar, a Zionist settler radical and a Gazan woman under siege!
