Ngozi Anyanwu
Nigerian-American playwright and actress Ngozi Anyanwu has been exploring what it means to be African in America. She tends to avoid the clichés that tend to reduce stories of death to stages-of-grieving in her plays.
Her other plays include Victory is Ours, The Homecoming Queen and Good Grief. Good Grief was presented as part of the Rising Circle Collective’s 6th annual Ink Tank and the play also received a workshop production at INTAR Theatre.
Recently, Good Grief won the Inaugural CTG/Humanitas Award and was listed in the 2016 annual Kilroy’s List, and was also a semi-finalist for the Princess Grace Award.
