CICADA:The One Man Show
(7 MINUTE EXCERPT)

In a parallel universe, they have decided to give out Reparations. We follow James, who has been chosen to beta test a psychotherapy simulator that will ease the trauma from black history in America called Cicada. Cicada is an afrofuturistic, sci-fi thriller-based stage play written by James D. Gavins & co directed by Karl Michael Iglesias. Through storytelling, music, movement, and comedy, we follow James as he journeys through his past to receive his reparations. (Duration:30 Min)
