SUMMARY:"Woman House" author Lauren Westerfield in conversation with Brian Blanchfield at Fact & Fiction
DESCRIPTION:Meet “Woman House” author Lauren Westerfield in conversation with Brian Blanchfield at Fact & Fiction in Downtown Missoula at 7:00 pm Thursday\, March 26\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Book\, “Woman House”: The essays and assemblages in this book plumb the depths of two women’s experiences\, exploring the pain and pleasure they find in their bodies\, in culture\, and in their own art. Violence\, beauty\, and love reverberate and dissipate and shape the forms and psyches of these two profoundly connected family members. At once raw and refined\, narrative and lyrical\, nostalgic and blunt\, the stories and images presented here explore Westerfield’s life—from childhood to adulthood—passing through innocence\, self-discovery and familial tethers. In unpacking her mother’s history and the complexities of their relationship\, Westerfield finds herself confronted with her own story: one grounded in a yearning for agency and individuation\, of a body and mind groomed to be at odds with one another\, of a feminist politics examining deeply rooted patriarchal understandings of beauty\, control\, and power. \n\n\n\nLauren W. Westerfield is the author of Woman House and Depth Control. Her essays and poetry have been published in FENCE\, Seneca Review\, Willow Springs\, Denver Quarterly\, Indiana Review\, Ninth Letter\, and elsewhere. Westerfield is a 2022 Idaho Commission on the Arts Literary Fellow. She teaches at Washington State University\, where she serves as the editor-in-chief of Blood Orange Review. \n\n\n\nBrian Blanchfield is the author of three books of poetry and prose: Proxies: Essays Near Knowing (Nightboat Books\, Picador UK)\, A Several World (Nightboat)\, and Not Even Then (University of California Press). His work has appeared or is forthcoming in The Atlantic\, Harper’s\, The Paris Review\, Oxford American\, BOMB\, Brick\, The Yale Review\, and in anthologies like Best American Essays and American Poets in the 21st Century\, among many other publications. The recipient of a Whiting Award in Nonfiction and the Academy of American Poets’ James Laughlin Award\, he is Associate Professor of Creative Writing at the University of Montana.

DESCRIPTION:Meet local author Julie Petrou for a Reading and Signing at Fact & Fiction at 7:00 pm Wednesday\, March 18\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Books: \n\n\n\nShadows of Defiance: For Anna\, a teacher in 1952\, a simple errand becomes a journey into the past. Ripped from her own time and thrown into the brutal Second Seminole War of 1835\, she finds herself in a strange world\, with a purpose she doesn’t understand. Although drawn to Alligator\, a brave Muskogee leader\, Anna’s true mission is to save the life of a woman who will become her great-great-grandmother. Every step in the past is a fight for her family’s future\, yet a bond with Alligator forms\, leading to a connection more profound than she could have imagined. Anna soon learns that her visit to the past has created a link that can never be broken. Unwillingly returned to her own time\, she is heartbroken\, pregnant\, and alone. Having completed her mission by saving her ancestor\, she must accept the impossible truth: she is carrying Alligator’s child\, a legacy that will forever bind her to a century she was never meant to be a part of. \n\n\n\nGuardian: Origin of the Amulet: When the Spanish arrive on Incan soil\, Aniya’s fate is sealed – until her father\, a master of ancient mystical enchantments\, forges a powerful amulet to protect her. But\, protection comes at a price. Torn between duty and heart\, the young conquistador\, Mateo\, defies an empire to save her and rescue her family from an uncertain fate. Together the flee to the quiet shores of Guadeloupe\, hoping to build a life of peace. But the world they left behind refuses to forget them. With pirates on the horizon and old enemies closing in\, they must stand together. Aniya and Mateo rely on the amulet’s true power to protect them against impossible odds. They’re not only fighting for their lives\, they’re also fighting for their legacy. \n\n\n\nDream Keeper: Until now\, Andrea had never put stock in the mystic foretelling of a Tarot Reading. Her purchase of an enchanted amulet\, combined with a more than mysterious reading\, began a nightmare that whisked her away from all she knew and into a life of numerous dangers. Unwillingly thrust into a different century\, Andrea finds her purpose in 1798\, having been escorted to a place and a time that needs the amulet’s help. Fear\, friendship\, romance\, and history are played like instruments by the amulet’s divination\, as Andrea unravels the threads of its deeper story. Dream Keeper immerses the reader in life after war and the resettling of a diverse culture. This mesmerizing story will draw you into a mystery alongside a young woman who struggles with the turmoil of modern crimes against humanity and the trauma of being a victim. \n\n\n\nAbout the Author: Julie Petrou was born and raised in Idaho and now makes her home in western Montana. Having raised her children\, she now enjoys spending time with her grandchildren whenever she gets the chance. The author of three books\, she loves to see the results of her labors\, whether through gardening\, crafts\, reading\, or\, most of all\, writing. Always having a place in her heart for history\, she is currently focused on indigenous tribes. She applauds their continued reverence and respect for their traditions. Embracing the outdoors\, her family\, friends\, and her puppy companions\, Julie loves to create worlds through her writing that give life to her stories; both those of the present and those who came before us\, hoping they will be understood and appreciated for years to come.

DESCRIPTION:Montana Repertory Theatre presents the world premiere of Kendra Mylnechuk Potter’s “Can’t Drink Salt Water” with the UM School of Theatre & Dance in the Montana Theatre with performances from Saturday\, February 14 through Sunday\, February 22\n\n\n\n\n\nDoors @ 30 minutes before show time \n\n\n\nWith transformative support from The Roy Cockrum Foundation\, and in partnership with UM School of Theatre and Dance\, Montana Repertory Theatre presents the world premiere of Kendra Mylnechuk Potter’s Can’t Drink Salt Water. The opening night of this gripping new play will take place Saturday\, February 14\, 2026 in the Montana Theatre on the UM Campus (PARTV Building)\, with eight additional performances following\, through February 22. \n\n\n\nJuxtaposing a mother’s relentless search for her missing daughter with the journey of a young woman newly arrived at Bethel House\, an evangelical shelter for victims of sex trafficking\, this timely story weaves together Native identity\, maternal grief\, contemporary religious faith\, humor\, and a call to action. The production showcases professional Indigenous talent from across the country\, including cast members Allison Hicks\, Jennifer Rader\, Serenity Mariana\, and Bradley Lewis\, costumes by Asa Benally\, lighting design by Emma Deane\, sound design by Rory Stitt\, and mask design and creation by Cannupa Hanska Luger. As a co-production\, it showcases UM student actors\, designers\, and crew alongside the professionals. The cast includes students Shadie Wallette\, who previously performed in the 2023 staged reading\, and Octavio Jimenez\, who has toured the state over the past year with State of Mind\, a collaboration between The Rep and the University of Montana Co-Lab for Civic Imagination. UM Students in the crew include Ronnie Avansino as the Props Designer\, Rae Scott as the Assistant Stage Manager\, and Aaron Prati as the Assistant Lighting Designer. The playwright\, Kendra Mylnechuk Potter\, is a University of Montana alum\, and is based in Missoula. \n\n\n\n“I am humbled to have the opportunity to collaborate with so many artists in this meaningful way. And for the work to get to live on this particular stage where I first worked over 20 years ago as a student\, my “home stage” as it were\, is a straight up dream\,” Potter said. “The caliber of work – soup to nuts – from designers through performers\, is just such a treat for our town to get to share in\, and getting to mingle seasoned professionals at the top of their craft while highlighting the talent here in town with that of our UM student artists is a joy that brings this experience additional heart. My sincere hope is that we are able to provide a theatrical experience that feels like a useful contribution to the issues we seek to address: Missing and Murdered Indigenous People\, community care\, ecosystems\, and seeing what (and who) has been here all along.” \n\n\n\n“The School of Theatre and Dance is proud to partner with Montana Repertory Theatre to tell this vital story. We are so grateful to the Native artists\, The Roy Cockrum Foundation\, and to all involved for sharing their artistry\, talents and resources with our students and we look forward to welcoming audiences to the Montana Theatre to see Can’t Drink Salt Water\,” said Bernadette Sweeney\, Director of UM School of Theatre and Dance. \n\n\n\n This project began in 2019 with the idea to commission an original work from an Indigenous artist\, grounded in The Rep’s action-oriented Land Acknowledgement: “Montana Repertory Theatre acknowledges that we are in the aboriginal territories of the Salish and Kalispel people. We also acknowledge the privilege of gathering on this land to share stories. We pledge to always hold a place on our stages for the stories of this land and of its first peoples.” The original commission was supported by the Warren Miller Performing Arts Center in Big Sky\, Montana\, and this story was chosen by a nationwide team of Indigenous artists\, including Lily Gladstone\, DeLanna Studi\, Madeline Sayet\, and Andre Bouchard. \n\n\n\n“The Warren Miller Performing Arts Center (WMPAC) is thrilled to see the next phase of Can’t Drink Salt Water coming to life in Missoula this spring. Any chance we can get to help support new\, adventurous work like the piece that Kendra Mylnechuk Potter has created\, we’re fully on board\, especially when it comes to cultural realities that authentically embody lived experiences here in Montana\,” said John Zirkle\, Executive Director / Artistic Director at WMPAC. \n\n\n\nThis production is supported by a generous grant from The Roy Cockrum Foundation. Founded in 2014 by Roy Cockrum and Benita Hofstetter Koman with winnings from Mr. Cockrum’s Powerball lottery jackpot\, the Foundation’s mission is to award grants to support world-class performing arts projects in not-for-profit professional theatres throughout America. Since 2014\, 76 American theaters and performing arts organizations have received major grants from the Foundation. Inspiration for its mission derives from a Camus quote:“Without culture\, and the relative freedom it implies\, society\, even when perfect\, is but a jungle. This is why any authentic creation is a gift to the future.” ― Albert Camus\, The Myth of Sisyphus and Other Essays.This performance includes mature themes. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPurchase Tickets LINK

The production showcases professional Indigenous talent from across the country\, including cast members Allison Hicks\, Jennifer Rader\, Serenity Mariana\, and Bradley Lewis\, costumes by Asa Benally\, lighting design by Emma Deane\, sound design by Rory Stitt\, and mask design and creation by Cannupa Hanska Luger. As a co-production\, it showcases UM student actors\, designers\, and crew alongside the professionals. The cast includes students Shadie Wallette\, who previously performed in the 2023 staged reading\, and Octavio Jimenez\, who has toured the state over the past year with State of Mind\, a collaboration between The Rep and the University of Montana Co-Lab for Civic Imagination. UM Students in the crew include Ronnie Avansino as the Props Designer\, Rae Scott as the Assistant Stage Manager\, and Aaron Prati as the Assistant Lighting Designer. The playwright\, Kendra Mylnechuk Potter\, is a University of Montana alum\, and is based in Missoula. \n\n\n\n“I am humbled to have the opportunity to collaborate with so many artists in this meaningful way. And for the work to get to live on this particular stage where I first worked over 20 years ago as a student\, my “home stage” as it were\, is a straight up dream\,” Potter said. “The caliber of work – soup to nuts – from designers through performers\, is just such a treat for our town to get to share in\, and getting to mingle seasoned professionals at the top of their craft while highlighting the talent here in town with that of our UM student artists is a joy that brings this experience additional heart. My sincere hope is that we are able to provide a theatrical experience that feels like a useful contribution to the issues we seek to address: Missing and Murdered Indigenous People\, community care\, ecosystems\, and seeing what (and who) has been here all along.” \n\n\n\n“The School of Theatre and Dance is proud to partner with Montana Repertory Theatre to tell this vital story. We are so grateful to the Native artists\, The Roy Cockrum Foundation\, and to all involved for sharing their artistry\, talents and resources with our students and we look forward to welcoming audiences to the Montana Theatre to see Can’t Drink Salt Water\,” said Bernadette Sweeney\, Director of UM School of Theatre and Dance. \n\n\n\n This project began in 2019 with the idea to commission an original work from an Indigenous artist\, grounded in The Rep’s action-oriented Land Acknowledgement: “Montana Repertory Theatre acknowledges that we are in the aboriginal territories of the Salish and Kalispel people. We also acknowledge the privilege of gathering on this land to share stories. We pledge to always hold a place on our stages for the stories of this land and of its first peoples.” The original commission was supported by the Warren Miller Performing Arts Center in Big Sky\, Montana\, and this story was chosen by a nationwide team of Indigenous artists\, including Lily Gladstone\, DeLanna Studi\, Madeline Sayet\, and Andre Bouchard. \n\n\n\n“The Warren Miller Performing Arts Center (WMPAC) is thrilled to see the next phase of Can’t Drink Salt Water coming to life in Missoula this spring. Any chance we can get to help support new\, adventurous work like the piece that Kendra Mylnechuk Potter has created\, we’re fully on board\, especially when it comes to cultural realities that authentically embody lived experiences here in Montana\,” said John Zirkle\, Executive Director / Artistic Director at WMPAC. \n\n\n\nThis production is supported by a generous grant from The Roy Cockrum Foundation. Founded in 2014 by Roy Cockrum and Benita Hofstetter Koman with winnings from Mr. Cockrum’s Powerball lottery jackpot\, the Foundation’s mission is to award grants to support world-class performing arts projects in not-for-profit professional theatres throughout America. Since 2014\, 76 American theaters and performing arts organizations have received major grants from the Foundation. Inspiration for its mission derives from a Camus quote:“Without culture\, and the relative freedom it implies\, society\, even when perfect\, is but a jungle. This is why any authentic creation is a gift to the future.” ― Albert Camus\, The Myth of Sisyphus and Other Essays.This performance includes mature themes. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPurchase Tickets LINK
