Maureen Huskey

Part fact, part fever dream, this captivating new work opens with Alice B. Sheldon – better known to sci-fi aficionados as author James Tiptree, Jr. – contemplating suicide. Dodging in and out of reality, the play investigates gender, longing, and creativity as self-exploration through one of the Science Fiction world’s greatest literary tricksters.
