Comedy Events in Sewanee

Jen Silverman's dark comedy set on the English moors, discussing power through two sisters, their governess, maid, dog, and a moor-hen. The Moors is a contemporary Gothic comedy that depicts the absurd, harsh, and passionate lives of five women and their dog on the English moors in the Victorian(ish) era. Cleverly combining classic tropes from the Brontës, Poe, du Maurier, and more, the play thoughtfully explores the lasting effects of isolation and violence with reckless imagination.
