A new work written by Masha Obolensky as a part of Emerson College's New Works Festival. A theatrical piece that draws from and is inspired by the autobiographical writings of Vanessa Bell and Virginia Woolf, Interior of the Artist Without her Sister explores grief, identity, the effects of inner passivity and repressed memory, loving someone with a mental illness, the transformative power of Art, and the ability we have to reimagine the past and change our present. Content Advisory: This play references the suicide of Virginia Woolf, sexual abuse, parental emotional abuse and issues surrounding a mental illness.
