This Life and Death: Conversations at Mount Auburn Cemetery

Throughout the past year, Artists-in-Residence Eliza Fichter and Debra Wise have been walking the grounds of Mount Auburn interviewing people about their relationships with the Cemetery and how their reflections on death have shaped their living. The conversations were then crafted into a series of short audio narratives, one for each season of the year. For one night only on Tuesday, Apr. 30, this mother/daughter team of theater artists will share their revelations about their process and perform selected moments from the interviews. There will be a Q&A with the artists, followed by questions from the audience. Debra Wise co-founded Underground Railway Theater in 1979, and Eliza Fichter is a theater maker and visual artist. The event will take place in Bigelow Chapel. Registration is required. Admission is $12 for non-members and free for members.
