Director

Poetry, music, and dance combine to tell the story of Jacqueline Marie Butler’s years at Bennington College in Vermont during the vibrant, yet turbulent years of 1968 –1972. Helen Hayes Award-winning actor Deidre Staples steps into the role of Jackie to continue the Queens Girl legacy on the Everyman stage. Through interpretations of the many different people Jackie meets over these formative years, you’ll see Deidre portray at least twelve different characters as Jackie embarks on a journey of self-discovery!

Queens Girl: Black in the Green Mountains

Everyman Theatre

It is 2016 and it has been 936 days and counting since Flint, Michigan, has had clean water. Third-generation General Motors employee Marion finds herself on the cusp of a promotion until her sister begins participating in protests accusing the company of poisoning the water. Forced to confront their past and weigh their limited options for the future, the family finds their tight-knit unit threatened by more than just the toxicity of the water.
