EVENT: ‘Black Do Crack’ A Performance & Conversation with Playwright Florinda Bryant

BLACK DO CRACK is a play that explores the curse and the
blessing of being a strong woman — and what happens
when the bough breaks. Black Do Crack is about the mother
who is not allowed to crack, but it is dying under the
pressure of that fiction. Playing with language, song and
movement, Black Do Crack is an invitation to be honest with
our struggles in one another, and recognize how systems
continue to perpetuate idealist ways of being for black
women and girls.

Written and performed by Austinite Florinda Bryant, Black
Do Crack is a call to the struggles of everyday women and
aims to shine a spotlight on the impact of those struggles
on their health.

Join us for the play and subsequent conversation with artist and performer Florinda Bryant.
