SUMMARY:SILENT SKY
DESCRIPTION:In this true story of Henrietta Leavitt\, an early 20th century astronomer hampered in her passions because she was born into an age where women didn’t pursue such things brings\, her struggle for equality is brought to vivid life.  Much like the women of Hidden Figures a few generations later\, Leavitt is able to overcome the biases of her day as she joins a group of women “computers” charting the stars for a renowned male astronomer who claims credit for their work. Only much later did the truth come to light. Social progress\, like scientific progress\, can be hard to see until someone like Leavitt changes the way we understand both the heavens and Earth. \nCAST LIST:\n\nLoren Bowen (HENRIETTA LEAVITT)\nAmber Hill (MARGARET LEAVITT)\nAustin James (PETER SHAW)\nHolland Renton (ANNIE CANNON)\nBrenda Kenworthy (WILLIAMINA FLEMING)\n\nSILENT SKY SHOW TRAILER:\n \nPREVIEW VIDEO:\n \nPREVIEW VIDEO 2:\n \nPERFORMANCE GALLERY:\n\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				SILENT SKY (MAINSTAGE\, April 6th  –  May 4th\, 2019)\nPHOTO 1: Amber Hill (MARGARET LEAVITT)\, Loren Bowen (HENRIETTA LEAVITT)\n(Michael Hardy Photography)\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				SILENT SKY (MAINSTAGE\, April 6th  –  May 4th\, 2019)\nPHOTO 2: Loren Bowen (HENRIETTA LEAVITT)\n(Michael Hardy Photography)\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				SILENT SKY (MAINSTAGE\, April 6th  –  May 4th\, 2019)\nPHOTO 3: Brenda Kenworthy (WILLIAMINA FLEMING)\, Loren Bowen (HENRIETTA LEAVITT)\, Holland Renton (ANNIE CANNON)\n(Michael Hardy Photography)\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				SILENT SKY (MAINSTAGE\, April 6th  –  May 4th\, 2019)\nPHOTO 4: Brenda Kenworthy (WILLIAMINA FLEMING)\, Loren Bowen (HENRIETTA LEAVITT)\, Holland Renton (ANNIE CANNON)\n(Michael Hardy Photography)\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				SILENT SKY (MAINSTAGE\, April 6th  –  May 4th\, 2019)\nPHOTO 5: Austin James (PETER SHAW)\, Holland Renton (ANNIE CANNON)\n(Michael Hardy Photography)\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				SILENT SKY (MAINSTAGE\, April 6th  –  May 4th\, 2019)\nPHOTO 6: Loren Bowen (HENRIETTA LEAVITT)\, Brenda Kenworthy (WILLIAMINA FLEMING)\n(Michael Hardy Photography)\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				SILENT SKY (MAINSTAGE\, April 6th  –  May 4th\, 2019)\nPHOTO 7: Austin James (PETER SHAW)\, Loren Bowen (HENRIETTA LEAVITT)\n(Michael Hardy Photography)\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				SILENT SKY (MAINSTAGE\, April 6th  –  May 4th\, 2019)\nPHOTO 8: Loren Bowen (HENRIETTA LEAVITT)\, Amber Hill (MARGARET LEAVITT)\n(Michael Hardy Photography)\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				SILENT SKY (MAINSTAGE\, April 6th  –  May 4th\, 2019)\nPHOTO 9: Austin James (PETER SHAW)\, Loren Bowen (HENRIETTA LEAVITT)\n(Michael Hardy Photography)\n\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				SILENT SKY (MAINSTAGE\, April 6th  –  May 4th\, 2019)\nPHOTO 10: Austin James (PETER SHAW)\, Holland Renton (ANNIE CANNON)\n(Michael Hardy Photography)\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				SILENT SKY (MAINSTAGE\, April 6th  –  May 4th\, 2019)\nPHOTO 11: Loren Bowen (HENRIETTA LEAVITT)\, Holland Renton (ANNIE CANNON)\n(Michael Hardy Photography)\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				SILENT SKY (MAINSTAGE\, April 6th  –  May 4th\, 2019)\nPHOTO 12: Brenda Kenworthy (WILLIAMINA FLEMING)\, Amber Hill (MARGARET LEAVITT)\, Loren Bowen (HENRIETTA LEAVITT)\, Austin James (PETER SHAW)\, Holland Renton (ANNIE CANNON)\n(Michael Hardy Photography)\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				SILENT SKY (MAINSTAGE\, April 6th  –  May 4th\, 2019)\nPHOTO 13: BACK ROW: Brenda Kenworthy (WILLIAMINA FLEMING)\, Austin James (PETER SHAW)\, FRONT ROW: Amber Hill (MARGARET LEAVITT)\, Holland Renton (ANNIE CANNON)\, Loren Bowen (HENRIETTA LEAVITT)\n(Michael Hardy Photography)\n				\n		\n\nPROMO TRAILER:\n \nJoin Our Facebook Event!

From behind their screens\, these individuals who might never encounter each other in real life — a student\, an IRS-pusher\, and a financier– forge a bond as strong as blood. Off the computer\, however\, in a Puerto Rican neighborhood in North Philly\, Odessa Ortiz’s real-life family is falling apart. Her nephew\, Elliot\, has returned from Iraq both physically and emotionally broken. Her niece\, Yaz\, is unable to reconcile her identity as a North Philly girl from the barrio with her upper-crust\, intellectual lifestyle. Her sister\, who was the mother that Odessa could never be\, is dying of cancer. Inventive and timely\, Quiara Alegria Hudes’ Pulitzer Prize-winning Water By The Spoonful is a powerful\, compassionate look at the meaning of family\, and the burdens we must carry to protect it. \nCASTING THE FOLLOWING ROLES:\nODESSA ORTIZ (aka Haikumom) (F\, 39) Elliot’s biological mother and Yazmin’s aunt.  Founder of an online chat room for recovering addicts\, and a part-time janitor.  Lives one notch above squalor.  From Puerto Rican Family\, lives in Philadelphia. \nELLIOT ORTIZ (M\, 24) An Iraq War veteran with a slight limp.
