SF/Arts Curator Insight

Seeing a story come to life onstage verbatim can be thrilling, and the literary theatre company Word for Word excels at that unique art form. Now Word works its magic on Lauren Groff’s delicate short story “Annunciation,” published a few years ago in The New Yorker. A young woman in the South Bay finds herself drawn into the worlds of two women: her landlady and a work colleague. You can read it online, then rediscover it in new ways onstage.
