SYNOPSIS: A drama about an interracial couple in crisis by local playwriting team Awa Sal Secka and Dani Stoller (Signature's Easy Women Smoking Loose Cigarettes) that melds sharp comic dialogue and moving spoken-word poetry. This new play about love and family, privilege and responsibility, introduces us to Shiri and Alaia, navigating their first year together as a couple. Over the course of a few days, their relationship is tested by events that underline the radically different ways each of them, one Black, one Jewish, experiences the world.

Directed by Jason Loewith & Kevin McAllister

Featuring Bru Ajueyitsi, James J. Johnson, Billie Krishawn, Lolita Marie, Susan Rome, Michael Russotto, Dani Stoller
