<p class="ydpf459eaeMsoNormal">"Stonewall Jackson coughs, and out comes glitter."
Stonewallin' is a queer coming-of-age story in the American South full of
witchcraft, war re-enactors, and ghosts. The winner of the inaugural So.Queer
Playwriting Contest, Stonewallin' explores the gap between symbolic politics
and material politics in racial history and offers an account of attraction
rarely seen on stage.</p>
<p class="ydpf459eaeMsoNormal">The witches are up to something in the small-town South.
When Marsha moves from Berkeley to Virginia to reconnect with her family’s
roots, she finds a barista with an astrology obsession, a Confederate monument
gone missing, and the makings of a bisexual love story — if she wants it. With
humanity, humor, and as many layers as a biscuit, this new play explores the
families we choose, the families we don’t, and the folks making magic in a
changing South.</p>
