what
we're
working on
The In[HEIR]itance Project continues our “Exodus in America Series” in Memphis Summer 2022-Spring 2023. Artists will be devising a play with communities throughout the Bluff City exploring the city’s history, the experiences of the people who live here, and its unique relationship to themes and ideas of Exodus.
EXODUS: Homecoming, co-created by locals and performed as part of Virginia Art's Festival's 25th Anniversary season was a funny and thought-provoking drama that reimagined the 7 cities in Hampton Roads as an intergenerational family exploring the hidden (and not so hidden) struggles of the area.
