THE SOSU SERIES
“It’s time to speak out about injustice. It’s time to speak up in solidarity”
The SoSu Series creates a space to highlight the work of Black, Indigenous Women (cis and trans) and Non-Binary People of Color working in the DC Theater scene through a sequence of video interviews. The artists interviewed will talk about their personal artistic ventures while also engaging in conversations around the untold struggles of being a Woman or Non-Binary in an industry that often directly neglects, mishandles and silences them.
