  Stewart’s Fabric Softener is a theatrical response to Toni Morrison’s
  Song of Solomon\, offering an imagined ritual with the power to revive yo
 ung Black women and insist on their survival. Stewart draws on three chara
 cters from the many who populate Morrison’s 1977 novel: Pilate\, her dau
 ghter Reba\, and granddaughter Hagar. In the original text\, Hagar dies of
  a broken heart after deeming herself unworthy of love\, beauty\, and acce
 ptance.\n\nIn her performance\, punctuated by musical outbursts of spiritu
 als and passages from the novel\, Stewart presents three new characters wh
 o are not recreations of these women but are instead archetypes: The Laund
 ress\, The Celebrant\, and The Witness. The performance begins as The Cele
 brant and The Witness prepare The Laundress for an intervention: a baptism
 \, a becoming\, and a funeral for what used to be and can no longer exist.
