The Lolita Apologies

McKenna / Wernick Productions • Professional company

55 minutes•Muse
In this one-act play, a young woman in a liminal space confronts a series of famous men whose poor adaptations of Lolita have done Nabokov's story, and women at large, a great disservice. Stanley Kubrick, Steve Martin and more take turns in the hot seat, as our narrator is forced to reckon with her own relationships with men and if healing is truly possible. Every woman deserves an apology.
