Reenah L. Golden discusses urban education following her performance in No Child… at Syracuse Stage

I finally got a chance to see the production of No Child… (written by Nilaja Sun) at Syracuse Stage on Saturday.  The one-act play features Rochester-native Reenah L. Golden, an actor, poet, activist and educator as the sole performer of nearly 20 characters in a play within a play set in a New York City school.

The direction by Timothy Bond, which featured a photo montage of various Syracuse School district locations, and the post show dialogue with the audience, made for a wonderful theater experience.
