JO VAN GOGH
Lillie Theater, City Theatre Company
Written by Kate Isabel Foley
Directed by Aurelia Clunie
In the wake of her husband Theo’s unexpected passing, 28-year-old Johanna van Gogh is left behind with nothing but her infant son, 200 of her brother-in-law’s paintings, and her husband’s dying wish: to make Vincent van Gogh a world-renowned artist. As Johanna sorts through the paintings in her attic, she uncovers the stories of the little-known women Vincent painted, which leads her to learn what kind of mother and businesswoman she wishes to be. A story about love, legacy, and reinvention.
