REDEFINING NORMAL: 
AN INTERCULTURAL DIALOGUE SERIES


Urban Ink presents the play "Confessions of the other Woman" and a series of intercultural dialogues around the play entitled "Redefining Normal."
 
The play "Confessions of the Other Woman" is written by third generation Chinese Canadian artist Valerie Sing Turner, and is described by the playwright as "a post-identity work; a celebration of the complexity inherent in every human being; a place in which otherness or one's culture can be empowering if fully embraced, making us more than the sum of our parts." 

Playing February 29 - March 11 at Performance Works.
