This Is My Brave - Stories from the APIDA Community, a virtual presentation featuring Asian Pacific Islander Desi American individuals premiered on November 15, 2021.
The cast performances represent the rich, diverse mix of cultures and identities of the APIDA community like age, ethnicity, gender, LGBT+, mental health conditions, neurodiversity, veteran, etc. We are not a monolith! The production playbill is available at bit.ly/APIDAPl... if you would like to learn more about our cast, production team, and staff.
This Is My Brave - Stories from the APIDA Community Show is proud to support Asian Women for Health {www.asianwomenforhealth.org}. Thanks to the generous support of sponsors and registrants, we are able to make a financial donation in honor of this very special event.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, This Is My Brave's entire 2020 season and the majority of the 2021 season have moved to a virtual platform. To ensure the safety of our storytellers, audience members, and staff, each piece has been filmed at home by our Brave storytellers and compiled into a show by Mid Coast Media {www.midcoast.m...}
