The ProduceHERS: A Personal Reflection

Image
This past weekend Bru Cafe hosted the SWAN (Support Women Artists Now) Day staged reading of Quarter Year Dilemmas , a one-act play directed by Halima Flynn and written by me. The reading was great. We had a stellar turnout! My husband was there as well as a couple of friends who always come out to support my artistic endeavors. Shout out to Carmen, ChaChanna, and Ros. The cast did a phenomenal job as well. In addition to bringing my words to life, they lifted and connected the important themes of friendship and the roles friendships play in dealing with life's struggles to the audience. Quarter Year Dilemmas was written all most 10 years ago. After college I was hoping for 'Sex in the City' and the reality did not match up to the dream. The play was my second attempt at playwrighting and I wrote it at a time in my life when I was frustrated and disillusioned about my dreams and professional expectations in the "real" world.
