Overview

THE STORY: Artemisia Gentileschi was one of the most celebrated female painters of the seventeenth century, yet her name was all but lost for centuries. Assaulted and publicly shamed at just seventeen, Gentileschi lived her life on her own terms as an artist, a mother, and a lover. Artemisia was a modern woman before her time; ARTEMISIA is a play that celebrates her artistry, courage, and humanity.
