In the continuum
by Danai gurira &
Nikkole Salter
Through the lives of two unforgettably courageous women—one in South Central Los Angeles and the other in Harare, Zimbabwe, we experience a kaleidoscope of life changing revelations in this surprisingly comic story of parallel denials and self-discoveries.
Danai Gurira and Nikkole Salter, together wrote this OBIE award-winning and Pulitzer Prize nominated drama in monologue. Together they put a human face on the devastating impact of AIDS in Africa and America.
