CURRENT PROJECT!
The Diary of an Oregon Trail Spinster is a self-produced single-woman show that follows the journey of a middle-aged woman along the arduous Oregon Trail… video game. Written and performed by Brenan Dwyer, directed by Genevieve Fowler.
Supported by nostalgic video projections mimicking original 1990s gameplay, this gritty and hilarious play confronts a Millennial woman’s experience with late-stage capitalism, crippling body shame, the trap of falling in love with a European, and the joyful frustration of being an artist.
World premiere at the Atwater Village Theatre July 2 - 5 , 2026.
