Borderland at SheNYC

Borderland is a dark comedy about Ida C. Craddock, a real-life 19th-century sexologist who claimed to be married to an angel.The first person to put the words “female orgasm” in print, Ida had a bone to pick with Victorian America’s view of sexuality. Enlightened by supernatural sex with her heavenly husband, Ida empowered other married couples through a mail-order sex education program.However, when her educational literature was discovered by postal inspector Anthony Comstock, Ida was charged with “obscenity” under his namesake law: The Comstock Act.Equal parts DJ set and opera, this unorthodox musical explores Ida’s struggle for liberty and reveals surprising similarities between the polarizing politics of the 19th century and the world we live in today.Music and lyrics by Natalie Weiss
Directed by Michael Barringer
