One-woman show performed by Prudence Wright Holmes

Thursday, October 6 7:30 p.m.

The Black Box Theater, LeFevre Hall

1199 University Drive Newark campus

Actor/author Prudence Wright Holmes performs her one-woman show based on the life of legendary author Willa Cather, a courageous pioneer of the LGBT community. Cather dared to dress like a man in a small Nebraska town in the late 1880s and was almost expelled from The University of Nebraska for her love affair with another woman. She went on to have a successful career in publishing and was the author of the best-selling novels My Antonia and Death Comes for the Archbishop and won a Pulitzer Prize for Literature for her novel One of Ours in 1923. This event is free and open to the public. A donation of $5, toiletries or canned goods is appreciated. Proceeds benefit the Center for New Beginnings.
