Renaissance Theaterworks has created BELONGING, a virtual series of three short plays written by playwrights of color. All three of these visually stunning theatrical gems attempt to define "Who Belongs?" Renaissance Theaterworks is excited to collaborate with the Outer Loop Theater Experience to create special virtual/mixed reality effects for the BELONGING series. A portion of proceeds will go to YWCA Southeast Wisconsin's efforts to end racism.
"Belonging is a fundamental human need, strongly related to the experience of personal identity and social connection. These concepts center on what it means to feel included and accepted by those around you,"
states RTW founder & Artistic Director Suzan Fete.
THE "BELONGING" SERIES
ALL OF THE EVERYTHING by Alayna Jacqueline

POOF! by Lynn Nottage

When a housewife comes to the end of her rope, she doesn't expect her husband to spontaneously combust. Now she has a pile of ashes on the floor, and a life to reclaim.
THE WINGED MAN by José Rivera

A young Latina bears the child of a mystical winged man. A lyrical play about home, hope and identity.
