Perishable Theatre's 2002-2003 Season





Perishable Theatre, Providence's non-mainstream avant-garde theatre, just announced their season, along with a unique subscription plan. (the Feed Your Head plan)

For $80, you can buy a subscription that allows you to come to the theatre as many times as you want, whenever you want. For $395, you can feed your body as well as your head. You get the pass, plus four gourmet dinners at the restaurant Empire, including free valet parking, Godiva chocolates at the box office, and a hand-quilted seat cover. It's kind of a different way to sell the season.

Tickets? Who needs tickets?


Their season consists of the following:

September 21-October 26
Erik Ehn's My Baby, written and adapted in collaboration with students of the International Institute of Rhode Island and directed by Vanessa Gilbert. A tale about a family that forms overseas, resolves to migrate to America and the ghosts that transmigrate along with them.


February 15-March 22
The Long Journey to Whereto, written by Oana Maria Cajal in collaboration with artistic director Mark Lerman. A multimedia extravaganza that combines modern myths, linguistics, coffee, and the itsy bitsy spider.


April 12- May 3
Three One Acts, written by Aishah Rahman, author of Only In America, which was produced at Perishable in 1997-98.


May 17-June 21
11th Annual Women's Playwriting Festival, A forum for women’s voices from around the world, featuring three one act plays by emerging female playwrights.
