***Written & Directed by Claire R. Liu***

In 1948, on the eve of McCarthyism, a young woman wrestles between her hopes of becoming an artist and the fate that destiny has laid out for her in a single perilous night. Torn between her own passions and larger forces of the world, she puts everything familiar and known on the line. Inspired by Greek mythology, *The Fate of Poetry* is an original immersive play with music and dance that interrogates the determination, risk, and madness that comes with “following your dreams.”
