Relative Theatrics is set to open its latest production, MARY GETS HERS by Emma Horwitz, in association with the University of Wyoming Department of Theatre and Dance. The play will run September 5–13, 2025, at the Studio Theatre in the UW Buchanan Center for the Performing Arts.
Directed by Sean Coyle, MARY GETS HERS features a dynamic cast including Aurora Dunning, Patch Kluge, Kim Lockhart, Jared Mohr-Leiva, and Hannah Waskowitz.
A Bold, Witty Story
The play takes audiences back to 10th-century Germany, where a plague is sweeping through and “everyone is turning into foam.” Two devout hermits discover an abandoned orphan named Mary and embark on a misguided mission to preserve her purity at all costs. Mary, however, has her own plans in this inventive reimagining of Abraham, or the Rise and Repentance of Mary by medieval playwright Hrotsvitha of Gandersheim.
With a blend of slapstick physicality, absurdist comedy, and biting commentary, the play has already garnered national acclaim. The New York Times praised it as a “Critic’s Pick” and a “multifaceted marvel,” while New York Magazine called it “wacky and winking… totally charming.”
