BLACK GIRLS RISING 2 (4).jpg
Because black girls deserve
Center Stage
Eight brown-skinned girls step into their light, reclaiming space in an industry—and a world—that once told them they were too much, too loud, too dark. They respond with one monologue, one memory, and one fearless truth at a time.
Equal parts funny, fierce, and heart-wrenching, this stage play explores the inner lives of brown-skinned girls as they navigate beauty standards, stereotypes, and the burden of being brilliant in a world that doesn’t always see them.
This isn’t a story about Black girl pain.
It’s a story about Black girl power.
