There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.”

Bubbly Black Girl Sheds Her Chameleon Skin"
Synopsis:
What’s a Black girl from sunny Southern California to do? White people are blowing up Black girls in Birmingham churches. Black people are shouting “Black is beautiful” while straightening their hair and coveting light skin. Viveca Stanton’s answer: Slap on a bubbly smile and be as white as you can be! In a humorous and pointed coming-of-age story spanning the 60s through the 90s, Viveca blithely sails through the confusing worlds of racism, sexism, and Broadway showbiz until she’s forced to face the devastating effects of self-denial.
Don’t get it twisted, this world is NOT just full of or for Black girls, but for all of the amazing humans that share the air!
Come be a part of this fun and thoughtful production.
