Description
Award-winning one woman show. In the oral traditions of West Africa, on a bare stage, this magnificent story spins the exquisite real life remembrance of Charlayne’s brain damaged aunt Neat, and the profound change she brought to her life. Neat, with her enormous love, energy, simplicity and magnificent clarity, teaches the young Charlayne what it is to cherish life. A magical, compelling, portrait of a young woman’s coming of age, Neat is the story of an urban African American girl bursting into adulthood, experiencing first love, and embracing both black pride and feminism. An evening of pure joy, compelling insight and hopefulness, Neat is an inspiration for every family.
Preview on November 6. Purchase tickets online or by calling 972-572-0998.
