"This is my note in a bottle."
In Andrea Dworkin’s never-published account, discovered after her death, of the aftermath of her 1999 drug rape in a Paris hotel, the feminist revolutionary reflects on the meaning of her life and struggle, as she confronts the blank space the drug left in her memory.
In September 2016, Montreal's Waterworks Company brings to Toronto its world-première staging of this intimate unpublished work, edited for the stage by Adam Thorburn with the permission of Dworkin’s estate, and starring Helena Levitt.
“Helena Levitt [delivers]… a powerful, anguished performance…”
(Jim Burke, Montreal Gazette)
“… it is the story we’ve all been waiting to hear, but more importantly, the one we’ve always wanted to tell …”
(Suzanne Zaccour, Feminist Current)
“… Bone chilling … blown away by the intensity…”
“… an unforgettable and transformative evening…”
