CORSETLESS
"Action is eloquence."--Corialanus III.ii.76
Catherine
Eaton weaves together Shakespearean text from across the entire canon
to create this innovative one woman play in four movements.
She
tells the story of Olivia, a brilliant but troubled young woman
struggling for her freedom in a mental health facility, who
communicates with her doctor exclusively in the words of William
Shakespeare.
