She Carries Me Again
Written by Lauren Brotman
Two women.
Trapped.
One's ill body threatens her mind.
The other's ill mind threatens her body.
They collide, propelled to discover the
Devastating imprisonment they share
Will allow them to transcend to freedom.

Painting the Streets
Created and performed by
Lauren Brotman and Amy Blanding
part of the 2017/2018 Innovation Series at Theatre Northwest.
Beth and Ally are two women with distinctly different world views and life stories; by a twist of fate, their paths begin to merge as each seeks to make a new life for herself in Northern British Columbia. As observers of this narrative, we become privy to their complicated and confusing internal dialogue, as both women begin to question their assumptions about the world. Humorous and achingly raw, ‘Painting the Streets’ attempts to capture the multifaceted, colourful, and complex nature of humanity as we struggle to live, contribute, and evolve.
Thank you to Marnie Hamagami, Theatre Northwest and Tracy Summerville for supporting this workshop presentation.
