The Appointment
We meet Lena just after she has learned that the baby she has been eagerly anticipating for 17 weeks no longer has a heartbeat. Lena details the process she goes through as she tries to find health care. Because she has been with a midwife, she cannot find an ob/gyn to give her the life saving procedure she needs. Eventually, the only place she can receive care is at an abortion clinic. In telling her story, Lena paints the picture of a maternal health care system rife with judgment of the very women they serve, and leaves the audience asking what they can do to create change.

Emerging Artists returns with their one-of-a-kind festival. Visit the theater any evening during this three-week event, and you'll find yourself transported in a number of surprising ways: by a single performer embodying a whole host of characters; by a more experimental theater piece "done differently" that challenges and delights; by a cozy two-person show exploring relationships; or perhaps by a bouncy new musical that will have you humming. Emerging Artists has always been about new works, new talents, new voices. That's never been more evident than now.
NO REFUNDS will be granted.
