JUANA MARIA
A Ritual Dirge by Roger Q. Mason
Directed by Michael Alverez
May 25 and June 1, 2025
Produced by Outside In Theatre and Skylight Theatre Company in association with The Roots & Wings Project.
West of the West Coast lies the isolated St. Nicolas Island where a young indigenous woman lived for almost two decades without human contact. And then she was "rescued" in 1853 by an American sailor with a bounty.
After living as an exotic at the Santa Barbara Mission for seven weeks, rich food, fleeting fame, and the excess of the West killed her. This is a dirge for her last two months alive."
Juana Maria is a recipient of the 2024 Ojai Playwright Conference Fall Playwright Residency.
One of three genre-busting plays about land, power and dreams in California. Learn more on our webstite at CALIFASTRILOGY.COM
