Resilience
October 5 at 3:00PM
Written & Performed BY: Mia Raye Smith
Resilience is an autobiographical solo performance that follows the experience of a black woman accessing mental health care for her anxiety disorder, while highlighting the correlation between race, anxiety, and the healthcare disparities that communities of color face while trying to find treatment. The performance flows through one single actor, playing over 20 characters of various cultural backgrounds, genders and age. This work is boundary-breaking, unconventional, and excites discussion.
