EchoTheaterSuitcase (ETS) and Krista De Nio>>Moving Ground present a preview showing of Centennial Reckoning, a work in progress performance bringing to light the untold stories of LGBTQ+ and immigrant service members from WWI to today. At this historic moment in time, the project brings forward the stories of those who have held important roles in our military, but have often been unacknowledged, underrepresented, or whose central identities were erased as a part of their service experience.
In creating the work, ETS has brought together LGBTQ+ and immigrant veterans, and non-veteran civilian women and men who have held roles of leadership and service in their communities. Through rehearsals, the performers explore the ways these identities have intersected their life’s work. Stories are told by the performers, as well as stories sourced from the archives, personal interviews of individuals who are unable or do not wish to represent themselves in a live performance format.
The WIP showing is followed by an audience talk back and reception.
