Imagining Rachel

Next up - Chatham University, formerly known as the Pennsylvania College for Women, where Rachel Carson attended college. I will be offering a “Ted Talk” version of the material as part of Chatham’s Hollander lecture series. Very exciting to be coming to the Burgh!

It's been a rough week, friends. Despite some great early reviews, first few audiences were small (it takes time to build). Then, I got sick and had to cancel two shows. So, almost no one has seen my show. But, C venues has rallied to add one more date for me. Tomorrow, maybe today (we're 8 hours ahead in Scotland) Sunday August 28 3:05 PM If you know anyone here in Edinburgh or anywhere close by, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE send them my way ASAP. This is a show that needs to be seen. It's shorter and crisper than the digital version, an hour 15, fun roller-coaster ride with a lotta laughs and some poignant moments. Please help! You can get tix from

Thrilled for this lovely and thoughtful review from "This is a slow-burning performance, which takes its time to unfurl like a flower'" "there are sharp edges to Robertson's writing, infused with the duality of nature- both tender and savage."

Thrilled to be here running in rep with the gorgeous and lyrical solo piece Glimmer of a Rainbow written and performed by .fagan I am such a fan of this show, and it has been such a gift to team up with Aoife, her husband Ralph (who directs her piece) and my pal Steve who directs mine, as we help each other navigate . Glimmer if a Rainbow opens tomorrow (Friday) at 3:05 C cubed space. See you there!!!!
