Artist Description
A 2010 Guggenheim Fellow and recipient of the 2007 Alpert Award in Theater, playwright, performer,composer and songwriter Cynthia Hopkins is the definition of postmodern artistry. Her mission is to
investigate new forms of theatrical communication which provoke emotion, stimulate the senses,
and enliven the mind; obscuring the distinction between edification and entertainment through the
creation of works which are as philosophical as they are entertaining, as intellectually challenging as
they are viscerally emotional, as deeply comical as they are tragic, and as historically aware as they are immediately engaging. She is the co-founder and artistic director of the ensemble company Accinosco
and founder of the band Gloria Deluxe which has produced eight full-length albums and performed at
numerous venues in New York and elsewhere.
