\u201cCommunity Voices\u201d is a groundbreaking new space for unheard writers, supporting vital perspectives and urgent stories about the Asian-American experience. This season, 2G partnered with GAPIMNY, Q-Wave, and SALGA, three local grass-roots organizations serving the queer API community to launch \u201cCommunity Voices: Queer API.\u201d Led by Deen, a first-generation South Asian American playwright and performer, this writing workshop supports queer, Asian writers interested in exploring their relationship to \u201cgender.\u201d<\/p>\n

This January, six writers were selected to be part of \u201cCommunity Voices: Queer API\u201d following an open application process promoted city-wide to all members of our Asian-American community who identify as Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Two Spirit, Queer, Trans and Gender Non-Conforming.<\/p>\n

This March, \u201cCommunity Voices\u201d offered a safe container to explore the theme of gender in a rich learning and collaborative environment, culminating in the writing of new pieces for theatrical expression. The program consisted of five, 3-hour writing workshop sessions co-moderated by 2g theater artists, including slam-poet Kit Yan, playwright\/ actress\/ director Nandita Shenoy, actress\/community-organizer Elena Chang, and playwright\/director Kyoung H. Park.<\/p>\n
