S19-20, Repisode 15: School Girls; Or, The African Mean Girls Play Audio Program - a podcast by Berkeley Rep

For the Audio Program portion of Repisodes, we read out loud from the dramaturgy material from the show’s program in an effort to make the information around our shows accessible to all audiences, in multiple formats. It's like we are reading you a short series of stories.

For the SCHOOL GIRLS; OR, THE AFRICAN MEAN GIRLS PLAY Program, we hear Charlie Dubach-Reinhold’s essay on colonialism, Ghanaian education, and international beauty standards and pageants.

SCHOOL GIRLS; OR, THE AFRICAN MEAN GIRLS PLAY was unfortunately closed down due to coronavirus concerns before it was even able to open. However, if you’re a subscriber or managed to snag a ticket within a tiny window last week, you will receive a link to a filmed version on BroadwayHD and get to experience the one and only full run of it that a few Berkeley Rep staff members were lucky enough to see live. We are so sad that not all of you will be able to experience the show, but we hope that this Repisode can illuminate some of the serious and historical undertones of Jocelyn Bioh’s wonderful comedy!
