"BROWN GIRLS CHRONICLES" written and directed by Yolanda Nieves

The play tells the tale of women who are the daughters of Puerto Rican immigrants that arrived in Chicago during the 1950s and 1960s. None of the women reflected in the play have ever lived on the island of Puerto Rico. Directly taken from interviews with second generation Puerto Rican women, The Brown Girls Chronicles: Puerto Rican Women & Resilience has a specific intent: to center the voices of Puerto Rican women who lived in Humboldt Park in a way that has never been done before while adapting Ntozake Shanges concept of the choreopoem in a new fashion. The lived experiences of the women are detailed in the compilation of poetry, choral poems, chants, and monologues that reveal the women's relationship to the self, family, men, their bodies and sexuality, their struggles with spirituality, and the way they resist invisibility.

NOTE: No one under 13 years old will be admitted.
