Helltown Players is excited to announce the world premiere of a sharp, witty, and thought-provoking new play, Portraiture, by Margaret Van Sant.

Toklas (painted by Dora Maar), and Mabel Dodge Luhan (painted by Mary Foote.) As she examines their lives and legacies, unexpected questions arise, and history proves to be anything but silent.

Karen McPherson  as Alice B. Toklas
Anna Botsford as Mabel Dodge Luhan
Kathleen Larson Day as Gertrude Stein
