Nominated for a 2009 Pulitzer Prize in Drama, “Now That
She’s Gone” was first produced by EMP Theatricals, LLC, at
the 2008 NY International Fringe Festival
Now That She’s Gone is a play that explores Ellen
Snortland’s often hilarious, irreverent and sometimes
torturous relationship with her Norwegian-American mother.
Now That She’s Gone has been described as a Lily Tomlin /
Garrison Keillor / hybrid… passionate, poignant
and funny in turns. A memoir piece with Eleanor Roosevelt,
sex, drugs and lutefisk, the play and performance has
received rave reviews and standing ovations in California,
New York, and Washington, D.C.
