Dangerous Personality, A
Synopsis:
She explored Tibet, fought with Garibaldi, rode across India on the back of an elephant, was friends with Thomas edison-a terror to the establishment, and a nightmare to the British Raj. Russian-born spiritualist and philosopher Helena Blavatsky lived everywhere from London to India to Hell's Kitchen-and was (and remains) one of the most controversial figures in world religion. With her colleague, Henry Steele Olcott, she created theosophy-the science of religion, the Secret Doctrine-Christ without the Church. Her ideas are still as timely and thought provoking as then. He life was lived on a colossal scale, and now Sallie Bingham's play brings this extraordinary woman, and her story to the stage

Treason
Synopsis:
Treason takes Pound from his broadcasts for Radio Rome railing against the U.S. involvement in World War II, through 1945 when he was arrested and jailed on 19 charges of treason at Pisa. Declared mentally unfit for trial, he was remanded to St. Elizabeth's Hospital in Washington, DC, for 12 years. Pound was released only after a long campaign waged by admirers such as Hemingway and eliot. Treason examines the quinetessential poet and firebrand, ezra Pound, who betrayed his country, his art, his wife, his mistress, and everyone he knew.
