The Golden Veil by National Theater of the United States of America

The Kitchen presents The Golden Veil by the National Theater of the United States of America.  The Golden Veil is a gothic parlor spectacle that tells, in multiple iterations, the familiar tale of a poor shepherdess seduced and abandoned by a would-be inventor.  Part pastoral ballet and part backwoods jamboree, part Punch-and-Judy show and part forlorn testimony, part bleak exposé of the lives of the rural poor and part celebration of their lovely handicrafts, it conjures the intimacy of a séance and the abandon of a hootenanny.  For additional information, visit www.kitchen.org.
