Next Up: "It's in the Bag"

Carnegie Mellon announced its 2018-19 season last week, and so I can announce that next year I will be creating and directing "It's in the Bag," which looks at the many women+ who have run for President of the United States throughout the country's history. Did you know that the very first woman ran all the way back in 1872? Her name was Victoria Woodhull, and she was a treasure. Start getting inside my head by reading up on her here.

Of course, Woodhull faced the kind of prejudice that all female presidential candidates have faced; here she is depicted as Mrs. Satan.
