Ground(s)

Issaiha Cunningham

With diverse casting, audiences are invited to experience childhood reframing and memory access through the intersectional lens of blackness and queerness. Ground(s) addresses the place in which I found my voice, through a practice that strengthened my voice over time. On playgrounds, children live out loud, unbound by the dangers of the outside world or even the world within the grounds they play. Reflecting backward, how can our voices be strengthened by the memory of these experiences? How can we see them differently?

 

Performances 5:15pm, 6:15pm, 7:15pm, 8:15pm
