When presented with an opportunity to make a quick fortune, she must make an important decision: leave her debt-ridden family and newborn daughter for the wild unknown of Alaska, or stay close to home, family, and intergenerational ghosts. Traversing 25 years, Dragon Mama is a one-woman adventure filled with queer love in a barren land, Filipino family lore, and a dope ’90s R&B soundtrack! THE GLASS MENAGERIE — Legacy Revival By Tennessee WilliamsDirected by Lisa BergerNovember 30 – December 23, 2023 / Opening Night on December 9, 2023 Production Sponsors: Colleen Kendall & Georgia Griffiths The mother of queer classics, this nostalgic story of love, regret, and letting go introduced a young Tennessee Williams to the world. Gripped by the guilt of abandoning his mother Amanda and sister Laura, Tom is forced to look back and investigate what led to the fracturing of his family and perhaps his soul. This poetic and compelling memory play comes to stirring life at Diversionary for the first time, posing the question: What is the cost of personal freedom? *NOTES ON KILLING SEVEN OVERSIGHT, MANAGEMENT AND ECONOMIC STABILITY BOARD MEMBERS — West Coast Premiere By Mara Vélez MeléndezCo-Production with Moxie Theatre Performances at Moxie
