The Weird Sisters, Austin’s favorite all-woman theater troupe, are proud to be performing an original work by one of their founding members, Susan Gayle Todd. The Weirds’ sixth annual production features New York’s Azure Osborne-Lee as Sycorax, a healer of Algiers who rises to prominence through her arts – and through her relationship with the enigmatic spirit, Ariel. When a catastrophic storm destroys Algiers, Sycorax is blamed. Stripped of her power and her lover, she is cast out and later marooned to become the “witch” of the isle from Shakespeare’s The Tempest.
There will be eight Performances June 17-20 and 24-27 – for tickets and more information, visit the Gemini Playhouse website.
