S and G's stop action play is still evolving. With one pirate completed, S, changed the direction of the production from Treasure Island, to a show about slavery. She has been poring over the collection of books we have on hand, If You Traveled on the Underground Railroad, Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, An American Slave: Written by Himself, Many Thousand Gone: African Americans from Slavery to Freedom, Follow the Drinking Gourd, and Wanted Dead or Alive: The True Story of Harriet Tubman, researching her newest story.
