The Battlefields of Clara Barton is a modern folk/rock musical about the vibrant life of Clara Barton; Civil War nurse, political activist, and revered founder of the American Red Cross. In a tumultuous life that spanned almost a century, Clara fought on many battlefields: historical, political, and emotional. Brought to life by an ensemble of women playing multiple roles where age and gender are fluid, the threads of Clara’s story run from past to present with seamless synchronicity, creating a rich tapestry of themes as personal and potent today as they were then.
Since 2017, The Battlefields of Clara Barton has been under creative development here at Northwestern University, the University of Texas, and the Austin Playhouse at the Paramount Theatre in Texas. This workshop brings Northwestern’s MFA and undergraduate programs together to develop the theatrical world of a brand-new musical; all with the writers in the room providing feedback throughout the monthlong process.
A pre-recorded production streaming and available to access virtually via Vimeo starting Fri., 12/10/21 @ 9:00 a.m. CST through Sun., 12/19/21 @ 11:59 p.m. CST. Running Time is 1 hour and 45 minutes.
