Sovereign
a production of Earth Pearl CollectiveSeattle’s First Black Queer One Womyn Show Festival, Sovereign highlights the multifaceted talents of black queer womyn. In its inaugural year the spectrum of shows range from new artists to the scene like Angel Gardner to an evening of comedic realness by Om Jahari, joined by veteran performer and Civic Poet Anastacia Renee, and many more. The intersections of these womyn’s stories are as empowering as they are heart breaking and evocative.
Featuring: Anastacia Renee, Om Jahari, Namii, Angel Gardner, Po’Chop, and Amber Flame
