The Broken Bones + I Don’t Know Her + ICDC

WIT’s latest engagement at DC Arts Centers finds our company ensembles performing alongside our featured ensembles and special guests.

The line-up changes every night and no performance is ever the same.

Guest Acts

I Don’t Know Her
Paying homage to living legend, diva extraordinaire, and shade queen Mariah Carey, I Don’t Know Her (IDKH) is an all black female group of improvisers and story-tellers. IDKH performs grounded, lively, and real-talk scenes, inspired by a song by a black artist. We improvise from the heart and tell our truths for our aunties, the culture, and any listening skies (if you know, you know).
Cast: Nichole Hill, Precious Jenkins, Lauren Jordan, Simone Webster

ICDC
A show based on an interview of a DC-based guest. We talk to someone who is a creative person in any field (the arts, science, social justice, politics, journalism, gastronomy; among others), and ask them about their stories in Washington, DC.

Guest: Jason A. Ellis is the executive and artistic director for Momentum Collective Inc., a northern Virginia based nonprofit focused on using the arts to educate, enrich and empower the lives of underserved youth. In 2018  he was recognized by the city of Alexandria as a 40-under-40 awardee and also one of the city’s Living Legends for his work as a social commentary playwright. He is one of a handful of local minority playwrights that create fully original musicals.
