Anchoress – ELYSE STEINGOLD

It’s 1385 and a woman could look forward to a life of plague, or worse, marriage (and if you survive either of those, you’ll probably die in childbirth). But Esther has found a way to cheat the system, deciding to become an “anchoress.” She is given funeral rites and bricked into a small cell on the side of the town church, as she is no longer a person but a “living saint.” Sure, she’s an intemperate, Jew-ish atheist who regularly breaks all 10 Commandments and all 7 deadly sins (not that she can name all of them). Nevertheless, Esther vows to live the rest of her life in solitude and “prayer,” but she’s not as alone as she wished. 

Living Situation – TIM CERNIGLIA

Tim Cerniglia’s (abbreviated) solo show living situation which features characters from a neglected house plant to the worst speaker at your corporate sales meeting.
