The Maids
On August 27, 2005, the EgoPo company arrived in Philadelphia to begin technical rehearsals for a production of "The Maids x 2", a ground-breaking version of Jean Genet’s classic, "The Maids". Three days later EgoPo became known as Philadelphia’s "stranded theater company." EgoPo lost its theater to Hurricane Katrina, most company members lost their homes, and their funding base was gone.
