A Mental Health TheaterTherapy Event-A Stranger To Grace A Champagne Brunch Featuring a Script Reading & Mental Health Discussion
“They inherited the trauma… Now they must admit it.”
What happens when a family learns to protect its secrets before it learns to heal its wounds?
Join The Brownie Collective for A Stranger to Grace, a compelling theater vignette exploring intergenerational trauma, family silence, and the emotional burdens passed from mothers to daughters.
From Cora Mae, where the wounds began, to Momma Ruth, who passed the pain down, to Sister Nadeen, whose unresolved wounds became her daughters’ burden, each woman carries a piece of the family’s history. Aunt Eva acknowledges the truth others avoid, while Ann struggles with feelings she has been forced to hide behind.
Then there is Kenny Wayne, a man who still loves the woman he no longer knows how to live with. Behind closed doors, Nadeen’s words cut and her hands leave wounds he hides. He reaches for a bottle, then drugs, trying to quiet what he cannot bring himself to confront. He prays for God to deliver him, to help him become the man he was meant to be
Through a dramatic script reading and guided mental health discussion, we’ll explore what was hidden, what was inherited, and what must finally be named. Come enjoy brunch, experience powerful storytelling, and join a conversation about breaking cycles and making room for healing.
