Presented by the School of Theatre at Boston University in November 2021, Laure is a play in response to the painting \u201cOlympia\u201d by Manet (1865), imagining that the Black model, Laure, was not erased from the archive. By adapting themes from the \u201cThe Picture of Dorian Gray\u201d by Oscar Wilde (1890), this play creates a three-dimensional world through its four characters, and engages with agency, gaze, and the power of the erotic. Written by Mya Ison (CFA’22), Directed by Gigi Juras (CFA’22)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
