Hello There!

I'm thrilled to invite you to a staged reading of BIRTH RIGHTS, an investigative theater project I was invited to collaborate on with 3 Girls Theatre Company, who develops, produces and promotes new plays by women playwrights.

SYNOPSIS: 3GT’s new investigative theater team [writers Jennifer Lynne Roberts, Nia Fairweather and Linda Giron] shares, BIRTH RIGHTS, a harrowing work-in-progress that explores the current administration’s war on the reproductive rights of undocumented teens at the border. 

EVENT DETAILS:  JULY 28, 2018 | TIME: 7: 30PM | LOCATION: Z Below (450 Florida Street, San Francisco, CA)

This is a pay what you can event! However, you can reserve your seat in advance for $10 by visiting this link.

3GT's long-time partner, NARAL Pro-Choice America, will lead a post-reading panel discussion with activists in the field about what can be done to counter the attacks.

I'm thrilled to be playing the role of 'Rachel' in the staged reading of CADILLAC CREW, a play written by Tori Sampson, which reflects on the importance of black women in the fight for equality and asks us to consider the implications of their erasure from past and present movements.

There will be 2 readings of CADILLAC CREW: February 12 at 7:30pm (Roble Hall, Stanford) and February 13 at 7pm (NOHspace). Both readings are $Free.99 (pay what you can) and open to the public so come out and explore with us!

These readings are a part of the Playwright Foundation's Rough Reading Series where exceptional new works that push into new theatrical territory, challenge assumptions, and present deeply felt dilemmas within our culture and world society are read for an intimate audience.
