CULLUD WATTAH HAS EXTENDED THROUGH DEC 12
Written by Erika Dickerson-Despenza and directed by Candis C. Jones, this new play is about three generations of Black women living through the current Flint water crisis. Marion, a third-generation General Motors employee, is consumed by layoffs at the engine plant. When her sister, Ainee, seeks justice and restitution for lead poisoning, her plan reveals the toxic entanglements between the city and its most powerful industry, forcing their family to confront the past-present-future cost of survival.
