Play description:
Exhibit is about an African-American woman, Iris, who recalls pieces of her childhood as she integrated a school in Muskogee, Oklahoma. Her personal recollections are flashes of a sharply polarized America in transition as the civil rights movement rolls forward. Iris’s memories of her martyred innocence for a cause are triggered by things she thought she’d never see again in her lifetime- the enactment of today’s rollback of the social tides of change.
