A play about the abortion divide, and how far female friendship can go to bridge it. Starring Madelynn Fattibene & Erika Soto
Directed by Hailey McAfee. Produced by SheLA Arts in association with The Inkwell Theater
When Olivia, a musician’s wife and climate science advocate, invites Maggie, an old friend turned social media influencer, to spend the weekend while she has an at-home medication abortion, she doesn’t realize that Maggie is about to throw Olivia off course. And actually, these women of different generations are about to alter each other’s lives in ways they hadn’t expected or imagined. What happens when a woman’s right to choose becomes a litmus test for all of her life choices?
"Perhaps the most arresting aspect of Here Comes the Night is how artfully the playwright approaches a subject that, in the hands of a lesser writer, might play as a message piece, satisfying in its theme but blunt in its delivery. There’s nothing of that here."
