Chosen Family
In Partnership with ArtsXchange and ZAMI NOBLA
An essential conversation in the true spirit of Sankofa
Wednesday, December 8th, 2021, 7:00 – 8:30PM
Location: ArtsXchange (2148 Newnan St, East Point, GA 30344)
True Colors is proud to present “Chosen Family,” in partnership with ArtsXchange and ZAMI NOBLA. Many LGBTQ create community, or family, outside of their biological families, sometimes by choice and sometimes not. As we celebrate the legacies of Sister Rosetta Tharpe and Marie Knight, who created their own community together while traveling the Jim Crow South of the 1940s, we welcome a conversation on the ways that Black LGBTQ form meaningful bonds and a home away from home.
This special event will feature songs from our production of Marie and Rosetta, as well as an opportunity for audience members to perform scenes from the show while being coached by True Colors’ Artistic Director, Jamil Jude!
