After a critically lauded Off-Broadway stint earlier this year, Liberation begins uptown at the James Earl Jones Theatre starting tomorrow (October 8). Bess Wohl’s memory play features Betsy Aidem, Audrey Corsa, Kayla Davion, Susannah Flood, Kristolyn Lloyd, Charlie Thurston, Adina Verson, and Irene Sofia Lucio. Whitney White is the director; an official opening is scheduled for October 28, and it will play a brief run through January 11.
“1970s, Ohio. Lizzie gathers a group of women to talk about changing their lives, and the world. What follows is a necessary, messy, and bitingly funny exploration of what it means to be free, and to be a woman. In Liberation, Lizzie’s daughter steps into her mother’s memory — into the unfinished revolution she once helped ignite — and searches the past to find the answer for herself.”
