About Daughters, Wives, Mothers:

Written By and Starring: Madeline Burk and Shira Holtz

Directed by Amanda Berkson

What do you become when who you are expected to be cannot exist? Who can you turn to? And what does necessity force you into?

Two of Shakespeare’s most iconic female characters, Lady Macbeth and Ophelia, each arrive at a pivotal moment, in their stories and the larger story at hand. And yet, neither are seen by the audience during these moments. This time, they are. A joint play made of two solo acts, Daughters, Wives, Mothers explores the weight of grief, the respite of girlhood, and the torment of madness through the eyes of these two legendary literary figures. What turns Lady Macbeth mad? And what really happens to Ophelia by the riverbank?
