“Aileen's play "The Year of the Solar Eclipse" is the feminocentric, sex-centered version of Rent.” - Austin Film Festival
When Angelina, Ivy and Elle gather to watch the solar eclipse, they have no idea how their lives are about to change. This dramedy follows three women on a year’s journey of navigating their evolving relationships, their sex lives and their shadow sides.
This full length-play premiered at the Planet Connections Theatre festival in 2018 and was nominated for outstanding production and won best set design.
Aileen remounted and revised the play for a run in 2019-2020 at the Off-Broadway theatre, The Wild Project.
