Description and Reader Names: File under: censorship, revolution of words, and lights in the darkness
A story of struggle, resilience, transcendence, and hope. The City of Asylum movement provides sanctuary to writers in danger of persecution or death in their home countries. This newly devised play gives voice to the work exiled artists from China, El Salvador, Burma, and Venezuela. Join in the conversation with a series of community events surrounding the production of this brave new work.
If you like The Gammage Project, you'll love City of Asylum.
Opening Night: Friday, April 5 with post-show reception
ASL Interpretation available Saturday, April 6
