How the World Began

By Catherine Trieschmann

A provocative, intelligent, and deeply felt play from the author of Crooked and The Bridegroom of Blowing Rock, Catherine Trieschmann, that earned critical acclaim Off-Broadway at The Women's Project. A Manhattan woman travels to a rural town in Kansas recently devastated by a tornado to take a teaching job in a makeshift high school. But when she makes an off-handed remark regarding the origins of life, she unleashes community outrage and the particular distress of a disturbed young boy. In an intimate and artful inquiry of her character's very souls, Trieschmann invites audiences to consider their own beliefs and their perhaps unspoken opinions of others.
