🎭 #ArtIsAWeapon @hiartsnyc presents "Tubman," @berryandco's one-woman show that tells Black American freedom fighter Harriet Tubman's story with her reimagined as a young woman growing up in current-day Harlem. • December 16, 2017 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM ($10) • December 18 & 20, 2017 11:00 AM - 1:00 PM (Free for Students) • Hi-ARTS Performance Space 215 E 99th Street New York, NY 10029 www.hi-artsnyc.org Tickets: https://ci.ovationtix.com/107/production/981922?performanceId=10215979 "Harriet Tubman is a heroine and American legend in her own right. This session will take the story of Harriet in the 19th century and places her in the 21st century; laced with the problems facing African-American youth all over the country. And especially focusing on the mistreatment of black girls in schools. What would happen if a young woman like Harriet became a leader in this new world? Would her struggle be the same? Would she know her power? This play examines the centuries old fight with #race, #gender, and #equality through a theatrical lens centered around the most influential woman leaders in American history. #Poetry, #monologue, and revolutionary #music will aid in telling young Harriet's story. It would benefit students and leaders searching to find their voice and searching to take an active role in defining their place through #socialjustice theater in this racially divided country." #Tubman #HarriettTubman #HarriettInHarlem #OneWomanShow #LacreshaDeniseBerry #BlackCreatives #Theater #HiARTS #CriticalBreaks #emergingartists #emergingtheater #Uptown #IndieTheater #AmericanHistory #storytellers #BlackWomanPlaywrights #TraScapades #ArtIsAWeapon (at Hi-ARTS)
