About This Event

A monumental collective work centering the voices and experiences of Black women and femmes, curated by Lynn Nottage and Dominique Morisseau.

What to Expect

  • 1.This is a mosaic of voices from Black women and femmes, so you will see short scenes and personal monologues stitched together under the direction of Lynn Nottage and Dominique Morisseau.
  • 2.The Detroit Public Theatre is an intimate space puts you close to the action, so brace for a direct, emotionally charged experience and moments of quiet between pieces.
  • 3.There is typically a lobby bar before and after; plan to grab a drink there rather than during the show since the house lights will stay down for the performance.
  • 4.Parking around Midtown can be tight, so give yourself extra time for parking or using rideshare; go early to find a spot and avoid rushing.
  • 5.If you are new to this kind of ensemble theater, expect a nonlinear structure and multiple voices; bring an open mind and a moment of reflection after the show.
