Voices of Resilience

The first half of the program will feature a humorous talk show style play in which the host learns about the challenges many women face, from the women who have been there. This was collaboratively conceived, written and produced by the members of the Expressions Group at My Sisters’ Place. Come prepared to laugh and cry.

The second part of the evening will be a musical showcase of core musicians from Belong to Song. These musicians will also share their own stories of recovery and resilience.

A Sister Song, written by Olive Meharg and performed by the My Sisters’ Place Players.

Living on the Edge Forum Style

The scene opens in the tiny cluttered living room of a low rent apartment occupied by a recently widowed woman (Jenny) and her children. The audience glimpses the challenges faced by Jenny in her attempt to provide the basics for her children—food, a roof, & a stable family life. The story stops when Jenny has lost everything.

The audience is then invited to join the action and change the course of the story.

‘Sista’ Rap

Raps written and performed by Denise Beeswax.
