Playwrights Local continues with its fall series of readings of new works by area playwrights with The Curve of Young Spine is My Home, written by queer playwright/actor Olivia Billings, a Pittsburgher who is currently a senior at Baldwin Wallace University finishing her BFA in acting.
The play’s synopsis says, “Three friends combat religion, fierce love, and mundane grief when they reunite in their small town for Jezebel’s funeral. The Curve of your Spine is my Home uncovers the mysteries of magic in Christianity, what it means to be a faithful and Queer, and the coincidences that scare us more than any horror movie or rollercoaster. Maybe if we want something to be true hard enough, it will be.”
Four actors will perform the piece, directed by Erik Andrews. To watch on Zoom, go here.
