REFUSE IT: A BLACK WOMAN’S GUIDE TO 21ST CENTURY RAGE

Wagner New Play Festival - MFA Thesis Production

Directed by Delicia Turner Sonnenberg

Refuse to Mammy. Refuse Shame. Refuse to Explain. “Refuse It: A Black Woman’s Guide to 21st Century Rage” explores the lives of Black women who reject the status quo. Through a kaleidoscope of vignettes, these women confront the costs and benefits of living radically under the persistent weight of the past. Darkly comedic and unapologetically defiant, REFUSE IT asks: If society has truly progressed and living conditions are undeniably better, why don’t we feel better?
