2020 VISIONS: A READING OF MELANIE MARIA GOODREAUX’S PLAY WALTER, BULLETS, AND BINOCULARS
December 17 – 7-9
A Howl Festival favorite, Walter, Bullets, and Binoculars is a sexy mock murder mystery that tries to unravel the mysterious death of Walter Martineau, infamous womanizer in the 1990s of New Orleans. The murder rate is high, Purple Martens fly, and a cast of wacky characters abounds!
Melanie Maria Goodreaux is a poet, playwright, actress, and director. Her work has been performed at such prestigious institutions as the Nuyorican Poets Café, Yale University, Sarah Lawrence College, Wheaton College, St. Michael’s College, and the National Black Arts Festival in Atlanta. Awarded grants by the Jerome Foundation and the East Orange-Orange Community Development Corporation for her work, playwriting is her first love, while poetry is intrinsic to her survival.
