🎭 Two women centuries apart connect in Jessica Dickey's Galleo's Daughter at remybumppo. | ✍️ kerryreid
Jessica Dickey’s world premiere at Remy Bumppo has some echoes of Doug Wright’s: the playwright appears as a character, researching the life of a historical figure as a way to come to grips with her own personal narrative. But unlike the ethically complicated Charlotte von Mahlsdorf at the center of Wright’s play, Dickey’s historical role model is a star who shines without a hint of tarnish.
In present time, Linda Gillum’s Writer has come to Florence to research those letters. But her own looming divorce adds a touch of personal anguish to her quest. She and Maria Celeste are looking at history through different ends of the telescope over centuries, but their mutual search for truth and connection centers this quietly moving drama about truth and faith. John Boesche’s stellar projections add a sense of grandeur and awe to frame this riveting story.
