Confederates by Dominique Morisseau

Oshana Arts and Mildred Langford present a staged reading performance of Dominique Morisseau’s CONFEDERATES directed by Kamal Bolden, at The Willie Agee Playhouse.

This play by Two-time Tony Award Nominee and MacArthur genius award–winner, Dominique Morisseau, leaps through time to trace the identities of two brilliant Black women and explores the reins that racial and gender bias still hold on American systems today.
