Additional Information
Relative Theatrics presents a free staged reading with music of THE ARSONISTS by Jacqueline Goldfinger featuring Jay Shogren and Annie Osburn. The discussion will be proctored by Dr. Laura De Lozier.
Set deep in a Florida swamp, THE ARSONISTS is a father-daughter tale of grief, loss and redemption. Inspired by the Greek tragedy "Electra," this play with music is a contemporary American myth that explores the relationship between parent and child in that small space between death and life, the last breath before the awakening. It is was nominated for the Blackburn Prize and Weissberger Award, and is currently receiving its rolling world premiere with the National New Play Network.
