LIBERATION
A new play by Bess Wohl
Directed by Whitney White
Starring Betsy Aidem, Audrey Corsa, Kayla Davion, Susannah Flood, Kristolyn Lloyd, Irene Sofia Lucio, Charlie Thurston, and Adina Verson
Liberation recently completed its Broadway run at the James Earl Jones Theatre.
Liberation is a funny, time-bending, and deeply moving new play that brings to life a group of women in 1970s Ohio who gather in the basement of the local Y for a weekly consciousness-raising group—as they find their place in a new wave of feminism taking hold around them. While their candid conversations unfold with humor, heart, and vulnerability, the play explores how everyday moments spark lasting change. Interwoven with a present-day narrator discovering her mother’s radical past before marriage and motherhood, Liberation becomes a heartfelt exploration of memory, identity, and the enduring power of women speaking their truths.
Liberation was produced by Daryl Roth, Eva Price, Rachel Sussman, and Jenny Gersten. General Management is by RCI Theatricals.
