Bridge City opens a conversation about the many ways to be Black, making it a family affair filled with meaningful connection and insight.

Bridge City is a piece developed through ALT's Playwrights for Change - a program supported in part by the Carol Ann and Ralph V. Haile Jr. Foundation. Its presentation at CAC is made possible through the Carol Ann and Ralph V. Haile, Jr. Foundation's generous support of The Basement: CAC's Black Box Lab.
