The Girl in the Photograph is a play based on a true story set in Mexico, telling the story of Paula, who gets caught up in a forbidden first love amidst a whirlwind of emotion and drama. The play leads us by the hand as we witness the development of a teen relationship with intricate consequences on everyone it touches. More than the sum of its parts as a drama, there are also several themes and thought-provoking subjects being explored: how can love develop even when circumstances would forbid it? What is that strength that carries us through moments of manipulation, how does it activate, and how did it come to be in us?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"The Girl on the Photograph\" is a raw, unapologetic telling of a power abusive relationship told and constructed by my own personal memories\u2026This is my #metoo stand, while telling a story of love\u2026 I feel honoured and grateful to have the opportunity to share and work on this piece with VCP because of it's students. The artists in this piece share a sensitivity and passion for this story that is rare and unique. I am excited to see how from the seed of my memories they can grown these characters into their own and see them go on a journey of storytelling with a collective creative drive\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Culled from interviews, letters, transcripts, case files and the public record, The Exonerated tells the true stories of six wrongfully convicted survivors of death row in their own words. Moving between first-person monologues and scenes set in courtrooms and prisons, the six interwoven stories paint a picture of an American criminal justice system gone horribly wrong \u2013 and of six brave souls who persevered to survive it. Winner of 2003 Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle Awards, declared \"the #1 play of the year\" by the NY Times.
\u200b
\u200b\"The Exonerated is a compelling piece about the true experiences of 6 innocent people who were sentenced to Death Row. The play is based on a collection of interviews that took place after their release. They faced Institutionalized racism, a flawed justice system and bigoted law enforcers. Some of them went decades with out being heard or believed. After overcoming the unimaginable, they shared their stories of loss, struggle, survival and hope. It is with honour we give voice to their stories so we can now share them with you.\" <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Throw in a short-tempered bad guy, a cookie with an attitude and over a dozen other fairy tale misfits, and you've got the kind of mess that calls for a real hero.
