More Fire! Productions

More Fire! Productions was a women's theatre collective active in New York City from 1980 to 1988. It was founded by Robin Epstein and Dorothy Cantwell and based in the East Village section of Lower Manhattan, New York City. More Fire! Productions created and produced eight full-length plays between 1980 and 1988, becoming known as "one of the city's leading women's theatre groups" for its contributions to the downtown, experimental theatre, and women's and lesbian theatre scenes of the 1980s. Epstein and Cantwell co-wrote, produced, and performed in the company's first three plays: ''As the Burger Broils'' (1980), ''The Exorcism of Cheryl'' (1981), and ''Junk Love'' (1981), which had numerous runs and became a neighborhood cult classic, "the longest running show on Avenue A." Epstein then wrote and produced ''The Godmother'' (1983). Novelist and writer Sarah Schulman joined the company in 1983 and collaborated on the writing and performing of three later plays: ''Art Failures'' (1983), ''Whining and Dining'' (1984), and ''Epstein on the Beach'' (1985). The final play, ''Beyond Bedlam'' (1987), was written and produced by Epstein, who was the only person involved in all More Fire! plays. Provided by Wikipedia
