  • 5/3 do we look FINE a solo show by Ebonie Marie Prem

    STORRS, CT — On Saturday, May 3rd, audiences are invited to experience do we
    look FINE, a bold and emotionally resonant solo show from multidisciplinary artist,
    activist, and researcher Ebonie Marie. Written, directed, and performed by
    Marie, this 60-minute theatrical presentation is a raw blend of comedic satire,
    poetry, and storytelling—confronting the systemic barriers that BIPOC artists face
    in predominantly white higher ed fine arts programs.
    Presented as the capstone performance for her MA Acting degree, do we look
    FINE is, in her words, “the solo show they never should’ve asked for.” It serves as
    both protest and poetry.
    Ebonie Marie manages to create a safe space for healing and truth-telling,
    while simultaneously challenging audiences to reckon with how racial inequity
    continues to shape the arts and higher education.
    Performances:
    Saturday, May 3rd at 3:00 PM & 6:00 PM
    Studio Theatre, UConn – Storrs Campus
    802 Bolton Rd., Storrs, CT 06269
