Lorraine Hansberry Theatre presents
The Black Feminist Guide to the Human Body
By Lisa B. Thompson
Directed by Margo Hall
A daring celebration of life and the resilience of Black women, The Black Feminist Guide to the Human Body marks Lisa B. Thompson’s triumphant return to the Bay Area in a rolling world premiere celebrating the joys and challenges of growing older and wiser.
These scholars, mothers, and leaders have given everything for our communities, having spent decades doing CPR on the nation, and have left too little for themselves. ‘The Black Feminist Guide’ offers validation, self-love and a collective exhale by centering the voices and lived experiences of Black women: past and present. Thompson’s new work is not only a joyous, raucous, spiritual event, but it is a love letter to Black women and their families—knowing that in spite of it all, we are still here.
