This Thing of Ours — Caridad Svich

THIS THING OF OURS by Caridad Svich. A text for live performance. In THIS THING OF OURS, an act of violence struck our city. This has happened before. We say we will put our lives back together. Years will go by. We will grow apart, come together, have children, and some of us, will wonder how to keep going, as we turn to myths and seek lessons there. In our theaters of memory, in our songs of transcendence, perhaps we will find peace. THIS THING OF OURS was first seen at Repertory Theatre of St. Louis' Ignite Festival of New Work.
