Is God Is / What to Send Up When It Goes Down (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Aleshea Harris turns theater into a monument, ephemeral but real, to ongoing pain. You can't tear down a statue that never shows up outside.Vinson Cunningham, New Yorker



This volume includes two dynamic plays from Aleshea Harris that confront the experience of being Black in America.



An explosive epic that examines the cyclical nature of violence, Is God Is follows twin sisters who undertake a dangerous journey to exact revenge upon their father at the behest of their dying mother.



What to Send Up When It Goes Down is a play-pageant-ritual response to anti-Blackness in America. It is a challenge to us all: to heal through expression, expulsion, and movement.
