A new play directed by University of North Carolina School of the Arts (UNCSA) alumna and Thomas S. Kenan Institute for the Arts Executive Director Corey Madden is garnering national attention as part of a movement toward inclusivity in the American theater.
DeLanna Studi’s powerful memoir play “And So We Walked: An Artists Journey Along the Trail of Tears,” is inspired by the story of a contemporary Cherokee woman who embarks on a six-week, 900-mile journey along the Trail of Tears to understand her own identity and the conflicts of her nation. Featuring a UNCSA-based creative team, the play runs through May 13 at Portland Center Stage in Portland, Ore.
