M.A. Candidate Kristen Holfeuer is directing the devised piece "Amy Surratt's FIRST and LAST (show)," which will premiere at La Mama in June.
About the Show:
"Amy Surratt’s FIRST AND LAST (show) celebrates the struggle to come back to something you never really had. This first and final biomythography is told by the fictionally famous "Amy Surratt," a former reality t.v. child star -- giving her debut theatrical swan song. Surratt’s own genuine Appalachian roots emerge through the joining of poetic narrative, cultural pageantry, true stories, and good ol’ down-home lying. Beauty pageants, burnouts, and unfinished business combine in this tragicomic exploration of fractured identities and origins. Don’t worry, though, we got enough mason jars, bluegrass jams, rusted cars, and southern fried metatheatrics for everyone."
