A.R.T. Artistic Producer Mark Lunsford hosts a conversation with special guest Ifeoma Fafunwa, creator of HEAR WORD! Naija Woman Talk True, which was on the A.R.T. stage in both 2016 and 2018. HEAR WORD! is a show that grapples with the issues affecting the lives of women across Nigeria, and the factors that limit their potential for independence, leadership, and meaningful contribution in society. Combining song and dance with intimate portraits of resilience and resistance, the show celebrates the women who have broken the culture of silence, challenged the status quo, and moved beyond barriers to achieve solutions.
