Description:
The Moss Arts Center at Virginia Tech presents a School Day Performance with Delanna Studi on Thursday, October 14, 2021.
Written and performed by DeLanna Studi, "And So We Walked" is a frank, heartwarming, and inspiring story about a contemporary Cherokee woman and her father who embark on an incredible 900-mile journey along the Trail of Tears to truly understand her own identity and the conflicts of her nation.
The play recounts the six-week journey, which retraced the path her great-great grandparents took in the 1830s during the forced relocation of 17,000 Cherokee from their homelands. And So We Walked is a powerful, multi-faceted dramatic memoir that draws on extraordinary interviews, historical research, and the artist’s personal experience to convey the complexities and conflicts with which the Cherokee wrestle.
The show is open to public, private, and homeschool students in grades 9-12.
Admission is free though registration is required.
