Created by freshly graduated A.C.T. Master of Fine Arts Alumnae Jerrie Johnson and Adrianna Mitchell, The Crooked Room is a spiritual awakening that explores how we own and celebrate the many identities we carry.
In The Crooked Room, a woman takes a vow of silence as she grapples with being Black, Queer, and a Woman. But are these identities mutually exclusive? How can she quiet her mind in a world where "closed mouths don't get fed?"
This play is her unapologetic journey into and out of the quiet.
Join us for the unsilencing.
QCC + BATCO @ AAACC
The Crooked Room, a collaborative surreal theatrical experience, created by 2 A.C.T. MFA alumni, takes us on the journey of a Queer Black woman fasting alone in a room attempts to take vows of silence but is plagued by the loud thoughts that surface. Brutality at the core of the American Dream and the generational debris that follows comes to a head in The Crooked Room, where "closed mouths don't get fed."
