Anna starred in the world premiere of the brand new musical THE RIGHT IS OURS! at The Sierra Madre Playhouse in Sierra Madre, CA.
The Right Is Ours! is about the extraordinary friendship of two women, Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony (played by Mintzer), whose efforts spurred the creation of the Women’s Suffragist Movement, and the impact of that relationship on the suffragist movement and women winning the right to vote.
THE RIGHT IS OURS played through October 8, 2023.
Anna released her second single, an intimate, nostalgia-evoking melodic piece, backed by her siren vocals & multi-part harmony June 20, 2023. Its complex production, rich with grungier tones of electric guitar blend w/an orchestral vibe and dissonance, creating an immersive experience to keep the listener entranced as well as on edge, highlighting contrast such as joy & melancholy.
Full of death/rebirth/life cycle symbolism, Anna released “My Eulogy” on the 2023 Spring Equinox, and its music video on the 2023 Fall Equinox, 9.23.23.
