Immersive and surreal, Letters In The Dirt places its audience face-to-face with the insightful Aiyana Jones — a seven-year-old girl fatally shot by police in 2010 during a botched raid in Detroit, now a symbol within the Movement for Black Lives. Structured like a game-ritual, the show lands it audience in a mysterious purgatory the night after Aiyana’s killing, where they are greeted by a chorus of black children, invited to play a game, and provided objects that were once a part of Aiyana’s life. To “play,” the audience must use their objects to guide her through her memories to an understanding of her death. Participants learn her favorite playground games, and dream aloud with her about if “we was all free.” All while celebrating black imagination and vulnerability, Letters In The Dirt creates a vibrant, intimate audience experience personal to all who participate.
