DESCRIPTION
“Chloe’s a drag queen. She’s got somebody tied up on her sofa. Also, that boy and that girl keep breakin’ up and yellin’ about it. Cue the music.”
-Once More, With Feeling
An New Play by Christina Cigala
Once More, With Feeling is a woman’s quest to find her voice, to claim her courage, and finish her script. The play within a play starts with a song and ends with, well, almost a spell.
It all started on the Subway… a feverish one-act written after a messy breakup. Then the playwright heard an urban legend about a snake and its owner, and everything came together. Somehow, these stories seem congruent. The snake begins to stretch, and so do the limits of this relationship. A story about the devourer and the devouee’. Who will eat whom first?
You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll never look at a snake the same way again. Either way, you’ve never seen anything like it.
