Red Door Project presents: "Hands Up: 7 Playwrights, 7 Testaments"

7:30-10 p.m., Black Box Theatre

This year, the Red Door Project will put on its first theatrical production, “Hands Up: 7 Playwrights, 7 Testaments,” a powerful set of monologues commissioned by The New Black Fest in the wake of police shootings of Mike Brown in Ferguson, Mo., and John Crawford III in Beavercreek, Ohio, and others. Seven black playwrights have been commissioned to write monologues that explore their feelings about the well-being of black people in a culture of institutional profiling.

There will be a talk-back following each performance.

Admission is free, although donations are appreciated at the door. For more information about Red Door Project, visit here.
