Synopsis

SUBVERTED portrays the destruction of Black identity as seen through the eyes of Eden, an 18 year-old girl living in an urban city in the USA. Through this solo performance of colliding viewpoints between 18 + friends, family members, and historical figures, Eden discovers that the promise of “equal opportunity” still, to this day, does not exist. She questions why the people she loves the most continue to live blindly subverted by an unrelenting history that they did not live through, yet inherit and must accept. Eden’s journey will make a difference in our understanding of what true equality actually looks like.
