Strange Attractor

Priscilla Carrion is an amazing person. Among *many* things she was a crucial and joyful collaborator on last spring's project "She Died for Our Convenience." We're glad to help create space for her to heal her body so she can get back to making dreams come true. We hope you join us in this support.

Unfortunately, due to the need to work and survive, she didn't initially slow down enough to heal properly....

One month later and we're ready to show you the receipts.

She Died for Our Convenience

We are surrounded by ghosts. We hear their stories through the objects, buildings, and traditions they’ve left behind. She Died for Our Convenience was a one-night-only choral haunting concerning the women who worked from 1898-1960 in the textile mill at the Earnscliffe Woolen Mill/Paragon Worsted Co. on Manton Ave in the Olneyville neighborhood in Providence, RI.

On the evening of May 4, 2019 we encountered a large community chorus, led by Chrissy Wolpert, singing melodies dedicated to the women at the very place they labored. We endeavored to sing the songs to unsung labor, while remembering that we are all but tomorrow’s ghosts.

Thanks BroadwayWorld for the wonderful words on She Died for Our Convenience!
