Bessie, Alice, and Margaret have two things in common: they were married to George Joseph Smith, and they are dead. Rising from the bathtubs where they were drowned, the three breathless brides gather evidence against their womanizing, murderous husband by reliving the shocking events leading to their deaths.

The Drowning Girls is a breathtaking fantasia and social critique, rich with lyrical language and haunting images as it reflects on the misconceptions of love, marriage, and the not-so-happily-ever-after.

CART (Communication Access Realtime Translation) captioning provides real-time subtitles of dialogue and sound cues during live theatre performances, ensuring Deaf and hard-of-hearing Audiences, as well as those who benefit from text-based access, can engage with the performances. 

Relaxed performances are designed to be sensitive to patrons who might benefit from a more relaxed environment, including those with a wide range of social, sensory, or educational needs.
