THE BOOK OF MAGDALENE. a play by Caridad Svich. In the edge-lands, in weird times, it's nite-time until it's not. These nites: Magdalene misses Ru and who they could have been together, Magdalene cares for Elder, Magdalene visits the local church to look at the sky, Magdalene works the call lines of the lonely and encounters Suit. Call this a quest. Call this a life waiting to be born again, haunted by a past when another Magdalene lived and was misunderstood. A contemporary drama of sharp encounters, winding faith, tough love and tenderness suffused with grace and magic. A story about finding the courage to move on when life feels as if it is stuck in place. A cross-roads play. THE BOOK OF MAGDALENE received its digital hybrid world premiere at Main Street Theater in Houston, Texas in February 2021 directed by Amelia Rico. It received a subsequent digital hybrid production at Teatro Paraguas in Santa Fe, New Mexico directed by Juliet Salazar. The Main Street Theater production was an Official Selection in the main program of The Theatre Times 2021 International Online Theatre Festival curated by Maria M. Delgado, Alma Prelec and Magda Romanska. This publication is a Santa Catalina Editions and NoPassport Press venture.
