Alabaster
by Audrey Cefaly
After a tornado barrels through town leaving nothing but death and destruction, only the reclusive artist June (and her pet goat Weezy) live to tell the tale. When a prominent photographer visits to take pictures of June's scars, both are forced to reconcile the pain of loss and recovery. This all-female, darkly comic southern drama explores the meaning and purpose of art and the struggle of the lost and tortured souls that seek to create it.THIS Theatre Company and Actors Space ABQ present ALABASTER by Audrey Cefaly, July 30th-August 8th. Experience this incredible play outdoors at Chispas Farm, in ABQ NM.
ALABASTER is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc.

Why
BECAUSE ART MATTERS
ALABASTER is an intimate play about scars and healing. About whether the risks of loving another person are worth it. About how home holds us — and traps us. And ultimately, it's about the power of connection, and of art, to heal even the deepest wounds.It's also about GOATS! Yes, goats.This is a play for neighbors and friends. For people willing to sit outside on a summer night and ask hard questions together. To heal together, despite the tornadoes of the outside world.So join us! Bring your friends, family, loved ones. Or come alone, and find a new community. We can't wait to welcome you.
