NY Times names McCarter’s Bulrusher as one of six productions in the NY/NJ
area to catch this fall!
"When the playwright Paula Vogel championed underproduced plays by staging them virtually, this linguistically inventive drama by Eisa Davis got her full-throated support, and a high-profile digital production. HERE IS A CHANCE TO SEE IT LIVE" —The New York Times
|

|

|
|
|
|
A magical coming-of-age
story, Bulrusher
tells the story of a multiracial orphan with the mystical gift of
clairvoyance and the predominately white small-town world closing in
around her. When a mysterious Black girl from Alabama arrives
harboring a secret, new discoveries are awakened, and old truths are
uncovered.
