Utah State University's Center for Women and Gender is hosting a concert honoring women composers and playwrights in honor of Women's History Month. Several USU music, photography and theater students will be participating in the event. The theater students will present monologues and scenes written by 20th and 21st century female playwrights. Songs written by contemporary American composer Lori Laitman will be woven throughout the monologues. Nearly all of the poetry Laitman has used in the songs for this program is written by female poets. Laitman has set the words of classical and contemporary poets in the compositions of two operas, an oratorio and more than 200 songs. Since launching her career in 1991, Laitman's music has performed frequently in the U.S. and abroad. This event is hosted by USU's Center for Women and Gender in partnership with the Caine College of the Arts.
Note: Babes in arms and children under 8 are not admitted to any performance.
