Black Girl from a White Suburb

BLACK GIRL FROM A WHITE SUBURB is playing at 5627 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago, IL 60659.

ABOUT THE SHOW
Tour-de-force solo show by Tania Richard. Growing up in an all-white Chicago suburb, she spent her days dodging microaggressions, striving to fit in, and yearning to see herself reflected. Her transformation began when cast as The Caterpillar in “Alice in Wonderland.” Blending cautionary tales, social commentary, and humor, Tania takes the leading role in a culture that often relegates Black women to supporting characters.
