Special Stage Performance of the controversial one act play, "Katrina Who?!" by New Orleans native Melanie Maria Goodreaux. On the 7th anniversary of this devastating storm, this one act is a nod to Hurricane Katrina and it's aftermath. Five survivors tell their own stories in a unique and colorful way that only NOLA residents can. The play features actors from Broadway's THE PRODUCERS, 42nd STREET, TWO and a HALF MEN, and GREY'S ANATOMY.
Our featured performer KAREN GIBSON ROC - is a poet and musician with fierce fearlessness. A musical chameleon she calls herself a poetic vocalist with sounds compared to Gil Scott-Heron without the political edge. Neither depressing nor conflict-oriented, her lyrics are impassioned love songs to femininity and art. She is sure to bring in the love and coolness once she steps on stage. A new album release THE COOL OF THE DAY hits the airwaves September 2012.
This event is sponsored by Epiphany 3 Films & KOMODO Food Truck!
