Judith Sloan & Friends
Judith Sloan is an actor, audio artist, writer, radio producer, human rights activist, educator and poet whose work combines humor, pathos and a love of the absurd. Her stories take the audience on journeys about the trials and tribulations of teaching in prisons and youth detention centers, migration, refuge, the climate crisis, and navigating bureaucracies. She will be performing excerpts of songs and monologues from various theater projects including It Can Happen Here, Yo Miss!, Crossing the BLVD, and a new work in progress, This is Not a Drill, written in collaboration with Andrew Griffin. Her work has been supported by the New York Foundation on the Arts, commissions from the New York State Council on the Arts, the Queens Council on the Arts, the Puffin Foundation, Ford Foundation, Rockefeller Foundation and support from NYU professional development fund.
She will be joined by poet, performer, playwright Darrel Alejandro Holnes, filmmaker Mychal Pagan, and playwright Mêlisa Annis.
There will be a talkback after the performance focusing on the balance of being an artist, teaching, and prison education.
This program supported in part by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature and the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs awarded to EarSay.
