Stanford Drama Finalist for the 2007 Pulitzer Prize in Drama. In 1955, in the redwood country north of San Francisco, a multiracial girl grows up in a predominantly white town whose residents pepper their speech with the historical dialect of Boontling. Found floating in a basket on the river as an infant, Bulrusher is an orphan wit...h a gift for clairvoyance that makes her feel like a stranger even amongst the strange: the taciturn schoolteacher who adopted her, the madam who runs her brothel with a fierce discipline, the logger with a zest for horses and women, and the guitar-slinging boy who is after Bulrusher’s heart. Just when she thought her world might close in on her, she discovers an entirely new sense of self when a black girl from Alabama comes to town. Passionate, lyrical, and chock full of down-home humor, this play is an unforgettable experience by a new, thrilling voice.
Stanford Drama
This multidisciplinary performance is the culmination of four weeks of cultural exchange between students from Stanford and Makerere Universities. Filled with music, poetry, dance, and storytelling, Beyond My Circle stages the anxieties and pleasures of discovering, knowing, and growing the self in unfamiliar spaces wi...th new faces. Political and insightful, witty and provocative, this performance is a meditation on identity wherein differences and similarities, all, are causes for celebration.
Directed by Aida Mbowa & Isaiah Wooden
Project supervised by Professor Michael Ramsaur
Project sponsored by SiCa, the Bing Overseas Studies Program, the VPUE, and Stanford Drama.
