Gravesongs
by Sarah Underwood, presented by Ensemble Theatre Intern Acting Co.
From Cincinnati, OH.
2009-10 ACCLAIM AWARD WINNER, Fringe Ensemble and Direction
SHOW DESCRIPTION
The famous American playwright Robert Anderson said “Death ends a life but not a relationship.” Gravesongs is a series of scenes and monologues, in which we come to connect with those who have left this world and listen in on the remarks of those who remain. Gravesongs is an exploration of the sweet, the sad, and the seriously funny sides of death. Written by Sarah Underwood, a young and gifted playwright, Gravesongs promises to be a compelling and interesting world premiere.
