The Festival will also present five new full-length plays: Finding Olive by Samantha Stone, First Sight: A Queer Indonesian Love Story by Dena Igusti, It's A Free Country by Leigh Flayton, The Moss Maidens by S. Dylan Zwickel, and Radio Man by Sarah Groustra.
Tickets to the performances will be on sale on June 1. All performances will comply with state and local COVID-19 safety guidelines. Learn more about each show at www.SheNYCArts.org/She-NYC.
