A Note From the Playwrights
The recent tragedy in Oklahoma City is a grim reminder
of how ignorance can manifest itself in silence. The eyes of
innocent children, too stunned to cry, silently voiced the universal
question: "Why?". We wrote "Southern Girls"
from hearts like those - those of the little girls we once were,
growin gup in the south, who witnessed injustice. Understanding
begins with discussion. We hope that our play will improve communication.
As Zora Neal Thurston once wrote :Ships at a distance have every
one's dreams on board". Our dream is a world in which we
hope never again to have to look into the shocked eyes of injured
children and wonder "why"?
