    I will be lecturing and presenting my work with the fabulous Elana Greenfield and Charlotte Meehan at Playwrights on the Ground, Wheaton College, October 17. Here's the link: http://wheatoncollege.edu/arts/2011/09/26/playwrights-ground-presents-kira-obolensky-elana-greenfield/

     People's Light produced The Return of Don Quixote, fall 2011. Check out link for photos.

    Why We Laugh: A Terezin Cabaret premiered in two international festivals in the summer of 2011. A remarkable experience to bring this adaptation of an original cabaret written during the Holocaust to survivors and the Czech people.
