Spiritus/ Virgil’s Dance
A WORLD PREMIERE by Dael Orlandersmith
Directed by Neel Keller***
Produced in Partnership with Merrimack Repertory Theatre
Spiritus means “breathing”. This solo play about how we live and pass, about time and direction – both celebrates and appreciates life and death, and just how much we take for granted.
Obie Award winning and Pulitzer Prize Finalist Dael Orlandersmith both writes and performs in her new play, Spiritus/ Virgil’s Dance. Dael Orlandersmith returns to CATF after her production of Antonio’s song/ I was dreaming of a son, co-written with Antonio Edwards Suarez.
