A monologue I wrote is part of “Related: Adoption Stories for the Stage,” to be performed at San Diego’s North Park Vaudeville Theatre from Friday April 1 through Sunday April 3, 2022. I’m thrilled for my work to be included in a production that feels original and necessary.
Featuring stories by 13 writers interpreted by 10 actors, this new theatrical event and staged reading is the culmination of an open call for submissions across the U.S. and internationally. Co-created and curated by Lauren Bergquist and Samantha Goldstein, two San Diego-based writers and veteran theater professionals, “Related” weaves together monologues, scenes and short plays to create a varied, thought-provoking and hopeful reflection of the lived adoption experience.
Tickets go on sale Monday, March 28 through North Park Vaudeville Theatre’s website and are $25 each. Net proceeds will be donated to Promises2Kids, benefitting current and former foster youth in San Diego for more than 40 years.
