I Am Zelda is a Theatrical performance by Rita Parisi, attributed to Zelda Fitzgerald a vibrant, misunderstood woman striving to define herself beyond the myths.
Join us at the Chelsea Public Library on Saturday April 18th, a 2:00pm!
"Zelda Sayre Fitzgerald is often remembered as the “crazy wife” of F. Scott Fitzgerald, author of The Great Gatsby. As one half of the Golden Couple of the 1920s, she was a dazzling icon of the Jazz Age and the inspiration behind many of Fitzgerald’s flapper heroines.
But before she became Zelda Fitzgerald, she was Zelda Sayre—the flamboyant belle of Montgomery, Alabama. The daughter of a prominent judge and an artistic mother, Zelda was notorious for her bold personality and unconventional antics. Her larger-than-life persona captivated the public both before and after her marriage, becoming the stuff of legend.
Though celebrated in her time, Zelda was far more than a glittering party girl or muse. She was a deeply creative and complex woman who struggled with schizophrenia for much of her life. She was also a devoted mother, an accomplished ballet dancer, a published writer, and a visual artist whose work was exhibited during her lifetime."
Beginning in 2027, I Am Zelda will launch as a theatre-only production, presented exclusively in professional performance venues with full lighting and technical support.
