In all the books that Sabrina reads to her son Tramarion, tragedy's just an origin story, something to propel the heroes into wondrous new worlds. When tragedy strikes in her own life, Sabrina launches herself into a fantastical, technicolor universe where she gets to be the hero. A high-flying adventure that refuses to be held down by the gravity at its core, Black Super Hero Magic Mama is a powerful refutation of the disproportionate expectations placed on Black mothers and their sons.
Directed by Monica White Ndounou
Dramaturgy by Ilana M. Brownstein and Regine Vital
in collaboration with Boston Public Library, and Boston Comics in Color Festival

Welcome to Matteson!
A suburban couple hosts a welcome-to-the-neighborhood dinner party for their new neighbors — a couple recently (forcibly) relocated from Chicago's roughest housing project — and it's anything but welcoming. A dark intra-racial comedy about reverse gentrification and how we deal with the "other" when the other looks just like us.
Directed by Logan Vaughn
