The Marsh Berkeley presents “Angry Black Woman 101”

Writer/performer KATHRYN SEABRON returns to THE MARSH BERKELEY with her solo show, _ANGRY BLACK WOMAN 101,_ showcasing the resilience, brilliance, and strength of BLACK WOMEN AS THEY NAVIGATE AND OVERCOME ADVERSITY. Inspired by a personal and painful experience at a nonprofit, this bold and thought-provoking one WOMAN SHOW DELVES INTO THE MICROAGGRESSIONS, tropes, and systemic misogynoir that BLACK WOMEN FACE IN THE WORKPLACE AND BEYOND. In this work, Seabron creates a compelling blend of vignettes, storytelling, poetry, and multimedia elements, to explore the intersection of racism and misogyny that BLACK WOMEN NAVIGATE DAILY, at work, in school, on the street, or at the market. The performance also confronts the weaponization of White women’s tears, shedding light on their use as a tool to silence and disenfranchise BLACK WOMEN AND THE BROADER IMPLICATIONS OF THESE DYNAMICS IN PROFESSIONAL AND SOCIAL SPACES. Engaging, raw, and deeply resonant, _ANGRY BLACK WOMAN 101 _invites audiences to witness, reflect, and challenge the pervasive injustices Black women routinely endure. The show was presented at the Atlanta Black Theater Festival in 2024, where it won the Best Performance Award. It returns after a brief but highly successful run last summer at The Marsh’s In Front of Your Eyes Performance Festival.
