Anna Bella Eema at Perishable Theatre

Date	Oct 16, 2009 to Nov 7, 2009
Description	ANNA BELLA EEMA A ghost story spoken and sung in 3 voices. By Lisa D'Amour Perishable opens its 2009-2010 season with the regional premiere of Anna Bella Eema by Lisa D’Amour. Lisa D’Amour’s work was last seen on the Perishable stage with her critically acclaimed production of The Cataract. Lisa D’Amour’s richly imagined tale of a fierce mother/daughter bond, Anna Bella Eema is spoken and sung by three women and is being performed at Perishable Theatre Oct. 16-Nov. 7. Ten-year-old Anna Bella and her hermetic mother Irene live in a ratty trailer on the edge of town. When their trailer park is slated for demolition because of interstate highway expansion, Irene refuses to leave. In this moment of crisis, her ten-year-old daughter Anna Bella creates a new girl out of the mud behind their trailer home. This mud-girl helps Anna Bella and Irene channel the supernatural and face the life they must live in the world outside their trailer home. A spoken-and-sung three-character gothic, Anna Bella Eema asks us to listen, and listen carefully.
