This is a lovely little play about the choices we make and the ones other people - often men - make for us. A resonant, thoughtful meditation on loneliness, art, and female ambition/genius.

Oh wow. I did not know ANY of this about Edward Hopper's wife, but now I'm obsessed with her. What a sad, familiar story of a female artist silenced, told beautifully, somehow both simple and complex. It's not just about what it is to be a woman whose art is overshadowed by her husband's, but what it is to be an artist who never quite makes it in their own right, but plays a pivotal role in the creation of someone else's art. So much to think about in this short. Just lovely!

In this thought-provoking and tender play, Kantor's 'Jo Hopper' gives voice to all of the other women who have the title artist stripped from their world and replaced with - wife, lover, muse. So many incredible women artists pushed headfirst into the shadows by the men in their lives...
