Virtual reading of the play “How Can I Say This So You Will Stay”
Join us for a virtual reading of the play “How Can I Say This So You Will Stay” by playwright Morgan McGuire and directed by Jenny Beth Snyder. “How Can I Say This So You Will Stay” is a fantastical journey through the research of Dr. Jacquelyn Sweeney and Dr. Amy Damrow. The play follows a group of student teachers thrust into an academic study on the difficult dialogues we try to avoid in life with those who hold different ideological space than we do. As the students delve into topics ranging from Black Lives Matter to the contentious 2016 election, the ways their politicized identities play out in their everyday life become clearer to them and those around them. The questions of who we really are and the tension that creates with the world around us come to the forefront. Do we stay in the room with that tension or do we leave? How can we stay?
