about

Lydia Diamond‘s play dramatizes the corrosive effects of sexism and racism in Europe during the 1800s as it brings to life the hauntingly true story of Saartjie Baartman.
Ms. Baartman was a South African woman taken from her home in 1810 and displayed on the streets of Europe. She is most often and derogatorily referred to as “The Hottentot Venus.” The play explores her life and the life of a modern African-American cultural anthropologist challenged with telling her story to a modern audience.
a world premiere.

really challenging play that zig zags through time. includes a number of cool movement interludes. this is a score for a version of Saartie's ultimate dissection.
