DESCRIPTION:
The Reproductive Justice Task Force of FCCPR presents a staged reading of 'The Turnaway Play' with all proceeds to benefit the MAP Project. This timely play looks at what really happens when people are denied access to reproductive healthcare. It is inspired and informed by the groundbreaking Turnaway Study, based on 10 years of research on the consequences for women who were denied access to reproductive healthcare.

A Q & A with Playwright Lesley Lisa Greene and representatives from The Map follows the performance.

Productions of The Turnaway Play are happening all over the country, in an effort to stimulate conversations about the consequences of abortion restrictions and to mobilize people to advocate for improved access to reproductive healthcare.

Exciting News for A Happening V: The Bestiary

Cloudgaze and Eggtooth Productions are thrilled to announce that we have received generous grants from the Mass Cultural Council as well as the Community Foundation of Western MA to support our 2025 Immersive Arts Festival, “A Happening V: The Bestiary.”

This festival will transform the Shea Theater into an exploration of theme, hosting installations, music, theatrical performances, and movement pieces, featuring the collective contributions of over 50 local artists. Audiences will experience otherworldly environments and narratives inspired by Aesop's Fables, George Orwell's Animal Farm, newly imagined cautionary tales, and creature myths of all origins.

Thanks to the Mass Cultural Council for their vital support this year.We'd also like to thank the Community Foundation of Western Massachusetts for their support in the form of a Flexible Funding grant. We couldn't do this work without you!
