Peace, Love, and Power: An Evening of Theatre and Poetry
at Under St. Marks Theater, August 2024
Peace, Love, and Power was an evening of theatre and poetry fueled by the love and pain that fills and inspires artists of color. As artists we are always in pursuit of joy, but there is often so much of the other parts of life that infiltrate and influence that journey. Peace, Love, and Power gave a space for my friends and I to tell our stories and let people in to the worlds in which we live.
