C Fodoreanu’s book, Ode to the Lake Sacalaia, explores the tension of self-discovery and identity, queer or not, and the in-between states of one’s self-awareness. It pays homage to younger selves searching for faith and ideals, and reconnects to what holds one true to oneself. Click here to learn more about C’s book.

From The Old Globe: The 11th annual Powers New Voices Festival is a three-day event of readings of 10 new American plays by emerging and award-winning playwrights writing for the American theatre today, including new works by San Diegans. The free festival opens on January 12, 2024 and closes on January 14 in the Sheryl and Harvey White Theatre, part of the Globe’s Conrad Prebys Theatre Center. Celebrating Community Voices, an evening of short works created by San Diego playwrights through the Globe’s arts engagement programs Community Voices and coLAB, is scheduled on January 12, 2024. The evening will feature readings of six 10-minute plays by local artists MG Green, Marie Vasari Hislop, Eliza Hugee, Ms. JHawk, Brian T. Josten, and Ric Scales. The first of four full-length new American play readings continues on January 13 with Emerson Loses Her “Miand” by Laura Winters, followed by Globe-commissioned Pleasant by Inda Craig-Galván, The Hispanic/Latino/Latina/Latinx/Latine Vote by Bernardo Cubría, and Globe-commissioned Empty Ride by Keiko Green. Powers New Voices Festival Schedule: FESTIVAL SERIES OF NEW AMERICAN PLAY READINGS SATURDAY, JANUARY 13, 2024 - 4:00 p.m. Emerson Loses Her “Miand” By Laura Winters Emerson Greenblatt just got engaged! And you’re invited to join her and her five friends as they complete a sacred rite of bridal party passage: a beer trolley tour through Nashville. The memories are flowing. The rosé is flowing. The debate over every single aspect of this interfaith wedding is, unfortunately, also flowing. Emerson Loses Her “Miand” is a nonstop comedic send up of the absurdity of bridesmaid culture. Cheers! SATURDAY, JANUARY 13, 2024 - 7:30 p.m. Globe-commissioned "Pleasant" By Inda Craig-Galván Mary Ellen Pleasant was a 19th-century abolitionist, an entrepreneur, a real estate tycoon, and the first African American millionaire... and you’ve probably never heard of her. Pleasant uses contemporary music, humor, and unconventional storytelling to explore the life of this self-described “capitalist by profession” who used her role as a humble domestic worker to cloak her badassery. Scandals, rumors, and one angry Karen threatened to bury her legacy, but Pleasant seeks to unearth her invaluable and lasting accomplishments. SUNDAY, JANUARY 14, 2024 - 4:00 p.m. "The Hispanic/Latino/Latina/Latinx/Latine Vote" By Bernardo Cubría University professor Paola Aguilar desperately needs money for... well, she’ll tell you. So when the Political Party offers her a substantial paycheck to help them understand the Hispanic/Latino/Latina/Latinx/Latine vote, she reluctantly takes the job. Can she help these political strategists understand all of the nuances of her community to save the election? Or will her own journey ultimately be more important than who controls the White House? SUNDAY, JANUARY 14, 2024 - 7:30 p.m. Globe-commissioned "Empty Ride" By Keiko Green Kisa, a Japanese painter in Paris, returns to her small hometown of Ishinomaki, taking over her father’s taxi cab as he grows increasingly ill. Ishinomaki was left devastated after the 2011 tsunami, which took Kisa’s mom in addition to over 3,000 other locals in the sleepy, coastal town full of fascinating characters. In this funny, tragically warm, supernatural story of those left behind, Kisa navigates finding her place in the world by rediscovering where she comes from, and where she’s been. CELEBRATING COMMUNITY VOICES FRIDAY, JANUARY 12, 2024 - 7:30 p.m. An evening of six 10-minutes plays Love Song for Pru By Marie Vasari Hislop Pru, an eccentric aspiring social media influencer, tries to craft the perfect series of posts to impress her boyfriend’s rich family—before they realize she might be a complete fraud. True School By Ric Scales Two fundamentally different rappers—one young and trending, the other a legend on his way out—must find a way to collaborate on a once-in-a-lifetime project without destroying their careers… or each other. Take Care By Eliza Hugee Anna and her new husband try everything they can think of to get his ex-fiancée Gladys to finally move out of their house. But her drinking, unpredictability, stubbornness, and unexpected condition make her both the rock and the hard place. Spectrum By MG Green To survive the big road trip to meet their partner’s parents, Basil, a trans, gender non-conforming, queer person must learn to bring all that they are into a new relationship where they are not exactly upfront with their partner about all that is truly at stake. Proper Provider By Brian T. Josten Set right after World War II, culture, dark history, and generations clash when an American father demands that his young daughter spend less time at the German neighbor’s house, the only place that gives her solace after her brother’s tragic death. Mirror By Ms. JHawk A person fractured from the inside out must fight pieces of herself to find her way home and become whole again.
