Emmy Award-winning documentary filmmaker Marilyn Ness’ playwriting debut, POSTMORTEM, combines true crime with family drama to tell a story about one woman’s reckoning with her difficult childhood. Inventively introducing documentary filmmaking techniques to live theater, POSTMORTEM is a brave and imaginative new play that asks audiences to participate in an act of healing. Directed by Tony Award-nominee Sheryl Kaller. Starring Outer Critics Circle Award-nominee Maddie Corman and six-time Tony and Emmy-nominated Tovah Feldshuh, and featuring a gifted DC cast, including Helen Hayes Tribute-winning Nancy Robinette.
POSTMORTEM, the play, will be accompanied by POSTMORTEM, the documentary—a film about art-making and what it can do to release and heal us from harm.
