Company One Theatre builds community at the intersection of art and social change
Reproductive Liberty and Body Justice for All
a digital event featuring responsive short plays by
Cris Eli Blak, Pampi Das, Cayenne Douglass, and Rawchayl Sahadeo
Premiering Thursday, October 13 at 7pm ET
Prompted by the recent dismantling of the protections laid out in Roe v Wade, four of Company One Theatre’s Volt Lab playwrights — all playwrights of color, all rising voices of the American theatre — are writing responsively on the theme of Reproductive Liberty and Body Justice for All. Each writer has chosen one item from the National Network of Abortion Funds’ list of demands as a jumping off point for a short play and exploration of the actions we can take together for a more just society.
Join our digital watch party on Thursday, October 13 at 7pm ET to watch the plays in community and take action with us!
