Bess Wohl is a Pulitzer Prize–winning playwright and filmmaker whose acclaimed works include Liberation, Grand Horizons, Small Mouth Sounds, and Camp Siegfried. Her play Liberation earned Tony nominations, a GLAAD Media Award, and widespread critical acclaim, with productions featured on numerous “Best of the Year” lists. Joining the conversation are celebrated theater artists Jocelyn Bioh and Whitney White, both Tony-nominated creators whose work continues to shape contemporary American theatre on Broadway and beyond.
Liberation follows six women who gather in 1970 to form a consciousness-raising group in suburban Ohio, determined to change their lives and the world around them. Fifty years later, one of their daughters looks back to understand what happened to their ideals. Both intimate and theatrical, the play explores feminism, friendship, legacy, and the ongoing struggle to define what liberation truly means.
