Scribe

by L.M. Feldman

"For a moment: let’s set aside what got erased from history, and take a hard look at what never got written."

​

​SCRIBE imagines the poet Milton’s relationship with his three kept-barely-literate daughters, while he was blind & outcast & composing Paradise Lost and they were transcribing & homemaking & coming of age. SCRIBE probes the relationship between genius, privilege, and labor, and mourns the enormity of unmade art by the voices we’ll never get to hear.

Featuring: Jessica Osber, Geoff Rice, Jon Adam Ross, and Franny Silverman
