The PlayGround Experiment
Faces of America Monologue Festival #7
My monologue, For Posture, sets a young Black woman in a reality where the only way to afford treatment for her uterine issues is to participate in a clinical study. Upon doing so, she reflects on her birth story.

Receptors Science in Theatre Festival
Premiered November 23rd, 2024 at Brooklyn Art Haus
Review by Rebecca Myles “Receptors - a terrifying portrayal on how a declining and inept medical system is causing the desperate to seek medical solutions online. It is gratifying to see those hard fought for principals are being taken up by a generation of women playwrights keen to discuss science, featuring alternative women roles and an embracing of diverse intelligence.”

While pots bubble on the stove, Ki's uterus and Gran’s brain come under the examination of Nurse Shelly, whose claims of love for the family lend to chaos and confirmations from the dead.
