World‑premiere rock opera about the Janes and reproductive freedom by Chadwick Stokes and Jessie Nelson.
When a pregnant Hannah flees an abusive relationship, she finds unexpected camaraderie with three outcasts riding the rails of America, outrunning ghosts of their own. After barely escaping an illegal abortion, she meets the Janes, an underground network of courageous women who risk everything to provide a choice to women with nowhere to turn.
Inspired by true stories of these hidden heroes, this world‑premiere rock opera fuels the ongoing fight for personal freedom. 1972 is written by musician‑activist Chadwick Stokes of the Boston‑based indie bands DISPATCH and State Radio with Jessie Nelson (Waitress, I Am Sam).
