WOMAN AND SCARECROW • February 2019
From Abbey's program note: "I was reminded throughout this process of the power of wonder. After all, there’s a literal Scarecrow in this script. Woman and Scarecrow is a world of death, yes, but also of love, life, and magic. It has been a joy to create and play in, if only for a little while. Welcome to our Oz. We hope you enjoy the ride."
