On July 15, Cal Shakes (an SF Bay Area theater company) hosted a community meal and civic dialogue about the role of joy in our movement building, our resistance, and our art, inspired by our production of House of Joy by Madhuri Shekar.
We Rise got to record, produce, and edit this episode of Asides, the Cal Shakes podcast.
Hosts: Tierra Allen, SK Kerastas, and Kimiya Shokri.
Guests: Playwright Madhuri Shekar and poet and RYSE Youth Center teaching artist and program manager Ciera-Jevae “CiCi” Gordon.
