In The Green

Sargent Conservatory of Theatre Arts is pleased to announce their upcoming production of In the Green. The production will take place in the Emerson Studio Theatre (130 Edgar Rd., Loretto Hilton Center for the Arts, St. Louis, MO 63119). As a young girl, medieval saint, healer, visionary, exorcist and composer Hildegard von Bingen was locked in a cloister’s cell after demonstrating a preternatural sensitivity to the world around her. Sequestered with Hildegard is Jutta, a woman who has spent her life secluded in an effort to recover a whole self after deepest trauma. Under Jutta’s guidance, Hildegard attempts to reassemble her own fragmented self while her mentor proselytizes a rejection of brokenness. In the Green is a musical unlike any you’ve seen, an astonishing, sonically sophisticated saga of two exceptional women broken by the world and their journey of healing that changed history.
