She-She-She
Six women. Two decades. One mountain: a staged workshop of Hook & Eye Theater’s fourth original play.
Conceived by Carrie Heitman, Directed by Chad Lindsey, Written By Cynthia Babak

Hook & Eye Theater tells a modern tale of alienation in this vibrant collaborative piece by weaving together stories from America’s New Deal era with the modern day to create She-She-She, a magical abstraction of wilderness and identity. Inspired by the friendship between Eleanor Roosevelt and Pauli Murray, She-She-She follows the stories of six women as they forge their journeys up Bear Mountain, wrestling with the intersections of their inheritance as they are informed and molded by their past. Full of joy, soul and musicality, Hook & Eye’s work has been called “rich, intelligent, funny,” and “a testament to the collaborative process of theatre making.”

About Hook & Eye:
Founded by co-artistic directors Carrie Heitman and Chad Lindsey in 2010, Hook & Eye is an ensemble of artists whose mission is to build inspiring, inquisitive works of theater that encourage new perspectives on foundational concepts. Original works include Fidgital Spring, a rhapsody of movement and mobile devices in homage to Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring (Figment Project/Governors Island; Stampede Lab/The Chain, 2013); The Summoners, an impressionistic take on what happens when big capital meets small-town America in a time of crisis (C.O.W., 2014); and most recently, GOD IS A VERB, inspired by the mind and myth of R. Buckminster Fuller (Actors Fund Art Center, 2015). Hook & Eye serves as resident playwriting instructors at New York’s Professional Performing Arts School, and was named a 2016 Artist of Choice by the Kevin Spacey Foundation. hookandeyetheater.com
