2011 Art and Change Grant – $2,500

  • Neighborhood: West Philadelphia
  • Change Partner: Lora Mckenna
  • Discipline: Performance
  • Social Change / Intent: Feminism

Miranda will create Waiting Room, a play dealing with the emotions of women who have had or are in the process of terminating their pregnancy. She hopes that the play will break down the stereotypes and biases that accumulate around women who go through this, while managing  their own emotions and dealing with the other women in the abortion clinic’s waiting room.
