triangle productions! honors female playwrights of the Harlem Renaissance with an evening of readings from its Outreach program THE BROWN PAPER BAG SERIES.
Chosen out of several dozen "anti-lynching" plays, most written by African American women between 1916 and 1934, are four one-acts which will be presented through spring of 2017 in the Portland Metro area.
