But What I Really Said, by Lisa Hill-Corely

Saturday, April 17, 7:30 PM
There is more than one way to be black, to exist as a black person.  When does tradition or pride in heritage turn into a mandate on how to live?  A conversation about how stereotypes are formed outside and within the black community.

This new ten minute play is presented as part of Creative Cauldron's Difficult Conversation series. A new free series featuring original works by some of the DMV's best artists, "this series invites audiences to bear witness to a difficult conversation, and to open themselves to greater understanding of the harmful and seditious way that racism pervades in our society.  With this pilot project, we begin our journey toward re-envisioning our role as theater makers and creative artists, and hopefully work toward a more diverse, inclusive and just artistic community." -Laura Connors Hull

Productions are free but require registration by 7:00 PM that day. Patrons will receive a YouTube link to live stream. Afterwards, a panel discussion of the work will take place and audience members can submit questions for discussion.
