Poison & Power in Palermo: Giulia at PAC NYC

Join Women of Culture for an unforgettable evening filled with theater, conversation, and connection as we witness the world premiere musical, Giulia: The Poison Queen of Palermoat thePerelman Performing Arts Center. 🌟

Inspired by the captivating true story ofGiulia Tofana, a courageous woman of the 17th century who provided refuge for women escaping abusive marriages, this musical delves into critical themes of survival, justice, power, and sacrifice. What starts as a solitary act of self-defense evolves into a clandestine sisterhood, prompting us to reflect on how far one should go to protect others and the costs that come with that responsibility.

Written and performed byGrammy Award-winning artist Jennifer Nettlesand directed byTony Award winner Mary Zimmerman, Giulia features a breathtaking score that intertwines historical significance with present-day relevance. With narratives rich in moral complexity, female resilience, and inquiries into agency and freedom, it aims to be one of the season's most discussed new productions.
