POIs: Hotel Madison & Shenandoah Valley Conference Center

When a vandal cuts the face of a Black student at Boston’s Classical Academy out of a photographic self-portrait on display in the school lobby, mixed-race collage artist and first-year teacher Sarai is asked to capitalize on the strong rapport she has with the student victim to investigate the incident. Pressure from the white Assistant Headmaster and troubling discoveries about the victim make Sarai question her effectiveness as a teacher and artist. When she discovers the truth behind the subsequent destruction of a portrait of the school’s founder, Sarai makes an unexpected choice that changes not only her future but the path the institution must take. Contains adult language, discussions of self-harm and portrayals of systemic racism.

Held at the Studio Theatre.
