Superwoman Died Tonight is a one-woman show based on a collection of original works concentrating on Lori D. Shannon's life experiences with her family and its battles with addiction. Superwoman Died Tonight also explores the myth of the strong Black woman and the burden of trying to live up to a lifetime of unrealistic social and historical expectations.

There will be a talk back after the performance.

Warning: Adult themes and language.

As You Like It selling out quickly!

All six daytime student matinees (Jan. 17 - Feb. 1) for our first mainstage show of 2017 are now full, and all of opening week (Jan. 11-15) is almost sold out at the time of this release. We urge folks to book as far in advance as possible to spare disappointment later. Read a primer on Jobsite's production from Producing Artistic Director here, watch a teaser video featuring original music for the show from New Grenada Records' Pohgoh here, and learn more about the production here. If you missed the earlier release about the generous grants from Community Foundation of Tampa Bay and Saunders Foundation that make this show and the related outreach efforts possible catch up here. In the coming days Jobsite and New Granada will make the entire soundtrack for the production -- all from NG bands like Permanent Makeup, DieAlps!, and Alexander and the Grapes -- available for download from Bandcamp. Stay tuned!

Tampa International Fringe Festival announced

While not officially a Jobsite endeavor, Producing Artistic Director David M. Jenkins is assisting in the creation of Tampa's first international fringe festival to be held in May in Ybor City. TiFf is also being spear-headed by award-winning fringe veterans Trish Parry and William Glenn of Wish Experience, who Jobsite presented at New World Brewery with their hit show A Brief History of Beer. TiFf will pool the collective resources of a number of venues, organizations, and individuals. Jobsite is expected to be one of a number of local organizations lending support to TiFf.

Jobsite is funded in part by the State of Florida Division of Cultural Affairs,
Arts Council of Hillsborough County, Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners, Gobioff Foundation, Fodder & Shine/The Refinery, Rollin' Oats Tampa, Creative Loafing, Illumination Advertising, Saunders Foundation, and Community Foundation of Tampa Bay. Jobsite is a 501 (c)(3) not-for-profit organization and all gifts made to Jobsite are tax deductible to the extent provided by law.
