Are You Ready My Sister? - Underground Railway Theater
Are You Ready, My Sister? tells the exciting story of Harriet Tubman, great conductor on the Underground Railroad, and the Quaker women who helped her bring 300 fugitives to freedom. This historical adventure story is told by two actress/puppeteers using a giant patchwork quilt; as the plot unfolds, each square of the quilt comes to life with shadow-puppets and painted back-lit scenery. TICKETS ARE AVAILABLE AT THE DOOR :-) Besides providing a brilliantly colorful setting, the quilt is a metaphor of women's work and collaboration, so central to the success of the Underground Railroad. The play also features audience participation, dramatic scenes and live music based on the spirituals of the slave era.
Underground Railway Theater is the theater-in-residence at the Arlington Center for the Arts in Arlington, Massachusetts. URT performs locally and tours nationally and internationally with a diverse repertoire that combines theater, puppetry and music in a fresh synthesis. Their offerings include adult cabarets and full-length plays inspired by contemporary social and political issues, family and children's theater, and puppet spectacles performed with symphonic music.
