Teresa is elated to be back in the room with Cris Eli Blak in a reading of his new play, Wilcox Prom 2k13 for the International Human Rights Art Festival this year directed by the incredible Autumn Angelettie!
Based on a true story, Wilcox Prom 2k13 tells the story of an interracial couple - Keshawn, the Black school quarterback, and Martha, the white cheerleader - who are seniors in the year 2013. Students from Wilcox County High School in Wilcox County, Georgia, hosted their own integrated prom - not sponsored by parents or school, who at the time maintained their history of throwing a segregated prom.
