Everystory presents a special Juneteenth Memphis Matters performance, a celebration and commemoration of the liberation of enslaved Black people in America, and a celebration of the African Diaspora.This unique performance will feature an all-Black ensemble and will be presented exclusively for an audience of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color, with a focus on uplifting and celebrating their stories.
At a Memphis Matters performance, audience members share reflections, moments, or true stories – everything from how their day has gone to an event that changed their life. That simple act of sharing is powerful on its own, but what happens next can be transformative: our talented Ensemble performs that story back for the audience. By playing it back, the richness of the story can unfold, affirming it is valued and deserves to be heard.
Through words, movement, and music, we connect through playback theatre to unite art and social change. Join us in celebrating Memphis’ people and experiences, unlocking healing, transformation, and joy—one story at a time.
