BLACK SUPER HERO MAGIC MAMA
APRIL 2022
ASSISTANT DRAMATURG
PRESENTED IN COLLABORATION WITH AMERICAN REPERTORY THEATER, BOSTON PUBLIC LIBRARY, BOSTON COMICS IN COLOR FESTIVAL
In all the books that Sabrina Jackson reads to her son Tramarion, tragedy’s just an origin story, something to propel the heroes into wondrous new worlds. When tragedy strikes in her own life, Sabrina launches herself into a fantastical, technicolor universe where she gets to be the hero.
A high-flying adventure that refuses to be held down by the gravity at its core, Inda Craig-Galván’s Black Super Hero Magic Mama is a powerful refutation of the disproportionate expectations placed on Black mothers and their sons.
