While Theatre for One: Here We Are is inspired by the pandemic; the 100^th Anniversary of the ratification of the 19^th Amendment; and the Black Lives Matter, We See You WAT, and other movements fighting racism, the Here We Are writers have contributed works that span a spectrum of ideas and points of view. Theatre For One elevates a vibrant chorus of voices creating deeply personal works that resonate in this shared moment.
