We. Are Here.

We. Are. Here.

LFL’s newest original work explores our company’s and community’s responses to the political, social, and economic turmoil that has succeeded the 2016 election, incorporating oral histories, as well as contemporary media articles about “hot button” issues, including immigration, education, white privilege, institutional racism, gun control, and more. We. Are. Here. centers those issues in the lives of four families from very different backgrounds whose personal circumstances and daily choices are affected by these issues. A core approach for LFL, to all issues, is unpacking the role of women, queer and straight, white and of color, in our contemporary discourse.

We. Are. Here. was created through LFL’s well-honed devising skills with LFL Co-Founder/Artistic director Jennifer Thalman Kepler helming the devising process. Originally produced June 2018 at Bellarmine University's Black Box Theater, Wyatt Center for the Arts.
