Middletown

by Will Eno
directed by Anne M. Byrd

Mary Swanson just moved to Middletown, eager to start a family and enjoy the neighborly bonds a small town promises. But when Mary befriends resident John Dodge, she is quick to discover that below Middletown's flinchingly honest exterior lies something much more complex. Middletown is a wry, human portrait of a town with two lives, one ordinary and visible, the other epic and mysterious.

For thousands of years, myths and legends have told tale of women who weave the world's fate: witches, goddesses, visionaries and soothsayers with a powerful kind of magic in their bones. These are tales of women being women...when the world is convinced that they're something else.

Former college roommates and current dear friends, Amanda and Lauren (and maybe a few special guests!), team up for an unforgettable evening of stories about how women -- both then and now -- heal and shape the world through their own kind of magic.
