From 2007 - Julie Jensen’s TWO-HEADED
TITLEWave and Cleveland Public Theatre team up once again to produce the work of award-winning playwright Julie Jensen. Set against the backdrop of the rugged and wondrous terrain of Southern Utah in the second half of the 19th century, TWO-HEADED takes an intimate and haunting look at the friendship of two Mormon women as they struggle to survive in the patriarchal Mormon society. On the heels of the Mountain Meadows Massacres, in which over 120 emigrants from Arkansas and Missouri were brutally murdered by Mormon zealots, these women struggle to make sense of their lives, their religion and their friendship. Watch an amazing 40-year journey in 75 minutes. Featuring Holly Holsinger and Chris Seibert. TITLEWave Artistic Director Greg Vovos directs.
Two-headed @ CPT 6/1
Smokin' hot: Holly Holsinger and Chris Siebert burn down the house in Julie Jensen's feminist character study about two 19th century Mormon women -- friends and arch-rivals -- who live through pioneer life in the Utah desert, through the ravages of patriarchy and polygamy ("an old man's noctural emission"). The wild-eyed Holsinger is flint to Siebert's quiet steel; they set off sparks as the story careens through the decades, from witnessing the Meadow Mountain massacre, to Lavinia's teenage crush on her best friend Jane, through several dismal marriages.
Check out: Lydia Chanenka's starkly disturbing set design: a gnarled tree whose imploring arms suggest a crucifixion and a spatter-painted crimson backdrop with surreal bloodshot eye swimming in gore.
