She is smart. She is beautiful. She is loved.
She is also self-defeating and struggles with self worth.
She is Helena.
After successful runs of A Taste of Shakespeare and Mary Zimmerman’s The Secret in the Wings, Hedgepig returns with a fiercely feminist take on Shakespeare’s comedy, All’s Well that Ends Well.
Director, Emily Lyon, says, “All’s Well that Ends Well is a comedy with a question mark. The world we’re living in has a lot of question marks right now, and I think we’re really hoping for a comedy, so it feels like the right time and environment for this play…It’s a story about [Helena] finding herself and finding her power. I think we need a play where [women] find their own strength and get to claim it.”
