About this event
ABOUT THE FESTIVAL
Each year we celebrate the diverse stories that make up America by inviting writers to submit two minute monologues that showcase the broad spectrum of what it is to live, work and play in America. Our aim is to collect unique, captivating and beautiful stories and share them so that we learn, grow and hear each other. Selected monologues are performed at a special event in November and published in an anthology. Each year we chose a word that should be included in each monologue, the chosen word for this year’s festival is kindness.
Because the Faces of America is about sharing, we use this festival as a way to raise funds for important causes such as the Native American Rights Fund, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and Black Lives Matter. This year we selected the Transgender Law Center.
We created the Faces of America Monologue Festival in 2019 in response to the inequality of opportunities available to marginalized communities. It has been amazing to watch this festival grow each year.
This years selected writers are: Brad Rothbart, Cassidy Byron, Catherine Morrison, Charles Jackson Jr., D.T. Burns, Emmy Potter, Erin Moughon, Hamilton Kreeger, Jeffrey James Keyes, Laura Hirschberg, Linett Luna Tovar, Lucy Wang, Mabelle Reynoso, Manuel Igrejas, Mark Mulkerin, Mickey "Bug" Johnson , Mildred Inez Lewis, Natasha Cobb, Nataylia Roni, Orlando F. Rodriguez, Seshat Yon'shea Walker, Shubhra Prakash, Starina Johnson, Steve Harper, Yasmine Beverly Rana.
For the Safety of our Artists Masks are required.
The Faces of America Monologue Festival is made possible in part with public funds from Creative Engagement, supported by the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council and administered by LMCC.
LMCC serves, connects, and makes space for artists and community.
50% of all ticket sales will go to the Transgender Law Center.
Transgender Law Center changes law, policy, and attitudes so that all people can live safely, authentically, and free from discrimination regardless of their gender identity or expression.
Transgender Law Center (TLC) is the largest national trans-led organization advocating for a world in which all people are free to define themselves and their futures. Grounded in legal expertise and committed to racial justice, TLC employs a variety of community-driven strategies to keep transgender and gender nonconforming people alive, thriving, and fighting for liberation.
