Dominique Morisseau on CONFEDERATES

CONFEDERATES
Written by Dominique Morisseau 
Directed by Stori Ayers
Featuring Elijah Jones, Kristolyn Lloyd, Andrea Patterson, Kenzie Ross and Michelle Wilson
The Alice Griffin Jewel Box Theatre  
Sara, an enslaved rebel turned Union spy, and Sandra, a tenured professor in a modern-day private university, are having parallel experiences of institutional racism, though they live over a century apart. This New York premiere by MacArthur Genius Fellow Dominique Morisseau, directed by Stori Ayers, leaps through time to trace the identities of these two Black American women and explore the reins that racial and gender bias still hold on American educational systems today.

We just saw this play at The Rep in Webster Groves, Missouri. Expertly performed and so, so well written. Fantastic experience.

I saw it at the Ashland Shakespeare Festival, and I think it's the best play I've ever seen in this theater complex (and I've seen many); it has so many layers to it.....

I thoroughly enjoyed the play. I will be going back!

Ditto. Live audience tonight! Affecting production. I'm assuming that because it's "in preview" the actors didn't come out for a curtain call. So I wanted to take this time/space to Thank You! EVERYONE was fabulous! One Love.

I am auditioning for this play on Saturday. Have 4 days to read script. If I order the boom it will take too long to get a feel and read. Can I purchase an ebook from you guys so I can start now
