FULL COLOR is simple and straightforward and authentic and ordinary: it is also bold, barrier-breaking, and extraordinary.

<BIPOC = Black, Indigenous, people of color>

Eight BIPOC actors speak the truths of their eight BIPOC playwright counterparts, in a bold declaration that their experiences are not monolithic, dispelling stereotypes, and presenting the depth and breadth of BIPOC experiences here and now in Utah.

FULL COLOR is comprised of:

I Still Have To Live Here by Tatiana Christian, performed by Talia Heiss
Fox and the Mormons by Chris Curlett, performed by Alex Smith
Fried Chicken by Dee-Dee Darby-Duffin, performed by Yolanda Stange
Here by Courtney Dilmore, performed by Abyanna Wood
At Least One by Bijan J. Hosseini, performed by Alec Kalled
Let’s Not by Tito Livas, performed by Pedro Flores
Life Is Color by Iris Salazar, performed by Estephani Cerros
American Survival Story by Darryl Stamp, performed by Terence Johnson

Some of these monologues will bring you joy. Some will make you uncomfortable. You will definitely feel the feels. Collectively, they’ll provide space for you to learn how to see us differently and how to hear us differently. How you respond, how you activate what you feel, is up to you.

FULL COLOR is the third installment of our Color Series. …OF COLOR (2019) and LOCAL COLOR (2021) featured fictional characters in fictional worlds, influenced by the playwrights’ personal experience. In FULL COLOR, each playwright writes in first person, combining writing acumen with personal experience.
