Read Synopsis

What has grown, died and transformed in my community? How do we share wisdom and grief?

Playwright & NYTW Artistic Instigator Liliana Padilla brings us into conversations with some of their dearest friends. Born 1000 Times is woven with visual artist Mojdeh Rezaeipour into a collage of questions and space that we can hold in our hands to mark and ask where we are.
