FIREHOUSE NEW PLAYS

It’s 2021, and the world is upside down. There’s a global pandemic, a racial reckoning, and tight knit families are torn apart by opposing political views. Carlee is living below the Mason-Dixon line for the first time in her life and painstakingly unearthing the roots of her family tree. The more she discovers about her ancestors of African descent and their white slaveowners, the more she discovers about herself. Some of those discoveries change everything.

First Drafts and Bagels brings together playwrights, directors, performers, and you to hear, then talk about, new plays.
