Subject: Our next production: Breathe Me In
"A lot of people expect me to be like, the cool black dude...the one who listens to hip hop and can dance well and is charming but, like, not so charming that it's intimidating to their friends. No one wants to date a black dude who plays dungeons and dragons and watches anime."
Breathe Me In by Rachel Lynett
After losing her hearing, Erin doesn't believe she can fulfill her destiny as the great musician she was born to be. Adam doesn't believe he can carry his race on his back, along with his autism. Together, they help one another find their true voice. A unique play of gentle humor and extraordinary beauty, utilizing American Sign Language and both classical and original music.
Rachel Lynette's original play Breathe Me In was a finalist for the 2016 Kernodle Award at the University of Arkansas /Theatresquared, and a semi-finalist at the 2016 O'Neill Playwright's Conference.
Breathe Me In features MJ (Jonathan) Barbee as Adam, and Kayleah Wilson as Erin, both making their Winding Road Theater debuts. Sarah Martino as Voice was seen in The Bar Mitzvah of Jesus Goldfarb in our Eight 10s in Tucson online play festival last summer. Piano music is provided by David Craig, with Callie Hutchison on violin. This play features original music by Colin Nossek. Artistic Director Maria Caprile directs, and Ensemble Member China Young serves as Production Manager.
To ensure the safety of our audiences and artists, Breathe Me In was rehearsed via Zoom and will be performed online only.
