About this Event
This reading is taking place inside of a month-long solo exhibition of Emily Orling's visual art entitled "How to Bear the Unbearable Body." Painting Mary was inspired by the creation of a painting which will be on display in the gallery. Please join us for this work in progress reading.
Painting Mary tells the story of a jewish woman who spends 20 years working on a painting of Mother Mary. Hacking a path through mental illness, artistic meltdown, and motherhood, the play turns into a musical turns into an opera turns into a piece of performance art. Mary arrives eventually. And the spirits talks to the plumber.
Painting Mary is a commission of Playwrights Horizons
