Sunday, November 17, 2024, 7:00 p.m., at A Noise Within
TheatreWorkers Project (TWP) is proud to present a special screening of STAND!, a film of a spoken word and movement piece based on writing by residents of CSP-LAC/Lancaster’s A Yard. The performers are Deon Whitmore, John Njoroge, and Ernst Fenelon, Jr., all with lived experience.
Deon Whitmore was one of the original writers and performers of STAND! when it was presented as a live theatre piece in 2023. He was a TheatreWorkers Project participant while at LAC. In an interview with The San. Quentin News, Whitmore said, “Being a part of this program essentially gave me a place to get away inside of a chaotic environment.”
The screening will be followed by a Talk-Back with the creative team and actors.
