About...Productions pairs a revival of its critically-acclaimed original drama with poetry readings, performance events, panels, and discussions in tribute to Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, the first feminist writer.
In PROPERTIES OF SILENCE, poetry, science, and history spiral out of control as a contemporary Phoenix realtor, her pool contractor husband, and the famed 17th century poet Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz meet in a multi-layered dreamscape. Sor Juana, considered the first great Latin American poet, is joined by her confessor who hopes to silence her pen and scientific inquiries. Reality bends as they all confront the nature of their identities and seek a new beginning.
The "Post-Silence" Salon Series, which follows each performance of the multimedia drama PROPERTIES OF SILENCE, includes poetry readings, performances, panels and discussions paying tribute to the poet-nun Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz.
