EST/Youngblood Presents a Workshop of
The Woods
a new play by Jahna Ferron-Smith
directed by Colette Robert*
featuring Daniel Abeles, Lydian Blossom, Will Dagger, Bjorn DuPaty*, Starr Kirkland, Julius Powell, Drew Lewis*, & Naomi Lorrain
THE WOODS. explores our learned relationships to the "American" landscape--who’s taught to love it? Who's taught to fear it? Who's allowed to claim it?--and the consequences those cultural narratives have on young Black Americans, only just learning what being Black in today's "American landscape" might mean for them. Going forward, might there be a way to manifest a more positive narrative surrounding the natural environment, for the sake of all of those next in line to inherit it?..."
