Description
In this sometimes funny, sometimes sad, always truth-seeking performance, Sloan attempts to break down assumptions that divide teacher and student, student and student, and residents of a polyglot city who live in close proximity but come from conflicting worlds. Fusing the art of theatre and radio, Yo Miss is an eye- and ear-witness account of a teacher using all her heart to bridge cultural and generational divides.

The Show opens with a performance by Mahina Movement, a phenomenal 3 women trio who combine, poetry and song to create passionate music tied to flesh and bone, straight from the heart.

Written and Performed by Judith Sloan
Directed by Michael Dinwiddie

Co-Produced by Michael Premo
