29th - Opening Night "Weaving Our Sisters' Voices" Gonzag
On Friday, January 29th at 6:30pm, Gonzaga University will host a theatre fundraiser for Our Place. It is opening night of, Weaving Our Sisters' Voices, a performance of dance, music and poetry. Tickets are $20. In this awe-inspiring performance, students use story and dance to depict the lives of Vashti, Jochebed, Miriam and 10 other women, named and unnamed, from biblical times. The play explores how these women of scripture's lives relate to our contemporary lives.

Weaving Our Sisters' Voices was created through an artistic collaboration between Gonzaga University professors Linda Schearing and Robert Spittal, and Suzanne Ostersmith. Ostersmith, director and choreographer of Weaving our Sisters' Voices, is director of the dance minor and teaches jazz, dance history and choreography and movement for the performer at Gonzaga. Schearing, who wrote Weaving Our Sisters' Voices, is a professor of Hebrew Scriptures in Gonzaga's religious studies department. She lectures and writes on biblical women and their interpretation and is the co-author and editor of Eve and Adam: Jewish, Christian, and Muslim Readings on Genesis and Gender (Indiana University Press, 1999). Spittal, the production's composer, is a professor in the music department at Gonzaga and is conductor of the university's wind ensemble. Spittal composed the musical soundtracks to the dance-dramas, "The Honorable Urashimo Taro" and "Medieval Mysteries." Spittal was also music director and conductor of the orchestras for the productions, "Pippin" and "Manifest Destiny."

The play will be performed at the Harry and Colleen Magnuson Theatre on the Gonzaga University campus. A silent auction and reception will be held at 6:30pm. Tickets are available by calling 313-6553. Tickets may be purchased with Visa or Master card, check or cash at the Box office. Tickets may also be purchased on line (gonzaga.edu/theatrearts) by credit card and then picked up at Will Call at the Box office. Please contact Our Place with any questions, 326-7267.
