VIRTUAL READING

Friday, October 30 at 7:30pm ET
Saturday, October 31 at 7:30pm ET

This is the true and turbulent story of Mary Mallon, known better as Typhoid Mary. As one of the most infamous women in America, her career as a cook left deaths in her wake. A carrier of Typhoid, Mary refused to believe she was responsible, citing God’s will and the lies of science instead. Imprisoned on North Brother Island, the conflict between her and the Doctors were as impassioned then as they are today.

“filled with contemporary medical, political, and social resonances”
—ArtsFuse

“Riveting and heartbreaking…must-see”
