This past Saturday, audience members mixed, mingled, and shared their feedback with Performing Diaspora artists as they begin their countdown to the Festival opening next weekend. We took the time to gather some audience reactions to the artists work on our newly-acquired FlipCam! Check ’em out!

And just a few additional words from the audience perspective:

“Opal’s words are powerful, through her stories, words, and sharing of words, she provided and created a space for healing.”

Adia: “Wow! What moved me? Genuine, powerful, personal, connected, real.”

“Phenomenal. Moving and relevant.”

We’re all looking forward to how the finished pieces will shape up!
