Advisory: Mature language, adult situations, and suggestive adult themes.

CPH is proud to present to you excerpts from three exciting narratives that exemplify overcoming times of struggle. Using race, ability, and socio-economic backgrounds as explored in these plays, join us for a conversation about how we can unpack and interrogate our own preconceived notions. Through their work, these three artists will share their journeys and open up our perspectives as we witness them take their struggles and move ever onward.

Content Advisory: The plays presented contain mature language, adult situations, and suggestive adult themes.
