The UW School of Drama presents
F*cking A
Written by Suzan-Lori Parks, directed by Malika Oyetimein
This
haunting adaptation of The Scarlet Letter turns Nathaniel Hawthorne’s
tale of an exiled adulteress into the tragic story of Hester
Smith—branded A for Abortionist—plying her trade in hopes of buying her
son’s freedom from prison. Employing Parks’s singular mingling of
theatrical language, music, and dance, Fucking A is a scream of rage at
the plight of those on the margins of society.
