A powerful live storytelling event where women of color reclaim voice, body, and narrative.
About this Event

This is my body is a powerful storytelling experience designed for women of color to reclaim their narratives, amplify their voices, and own their truths. Over the past few months, the cohort has crafted original performance pieces through writing and performance workshops, centering the theme of "body". The showcase is a culmination of their hard work, vulnerability, and bravery as they take the stage to share personal stories about identity, healing, strength, and survival.
Whether this is your first this is my body showcase or your eighth, we invite you to join us for an unforgettable evening that celebrates women of color as they transform silence into power and reclaim the narratives of their lives.
Tickets sell out most years, so buy in advance. Any remaining tickets will be sold at the door day of.
NOTE: Due to the deeply personal nature of these stories, some stories may contain mature themes. We leave it up to the discretion of parents/guardians if this showcase is appropriate for their children.
