Penelope sits at home on the island of Ithaca, waiting for the return of her _husband Odysseus, dreading his death. If word comes of his death, she must _marry one of her many, many, many, many suitors.

She is good. She waits. She feels no pleasure. She cant make any mistakes.

She weaves a shroud. She bides her time. In the darkness, she pulls the _threads back apart. She cant finish it. She must finish it. If she doesnt finish it _she wont have to marry. She will be faithful. She will be good. She is good.

A Good Woman presents Penelopes inner world in a conversation between a _violinist and a dancer, bound sometimes by string. What does it mean to be a _good woman?
With over 100 offerings from rebellious circus, delicious dance, fearless theater and activist art to workshops, parties, and more Cannonball pushes the boundaries of live performance at four different venues this Fringe. Come as you are and stay past bedtime. Blaze your own trail at cannonballfestival.org.

About the Artist

Nerissa and Sam practice a cross-disciplinary investigation of form through text, conversation, and embodied practice. Working collaboratively, they are interested in interrogating the structures and histories of each medium, creating subtle critiques of western cannon to divine deeper meaning on the material impacts of those cannons on global power structures. Our work is process-driven, prioritizing exploration, improvisation, and conversation between artistic forms.
