The Road to Damascus is a solo performance piece written and performed by Kathy Randels and directed by Odile Del Giudice that uses the story of Saul/Paul’s conversion experience as described in Acts 9 as a metaphor for awakening to the persecutorial nature of white supremacy in the USA.  It also weaves in a modern retelling of Little Red Riding Hood to explore how sexual trauma leads some women to cause harm to themselves and others.  Designers Diane Baas (lighting), Kevin Griffith (set), Steve Gilliland (sound and music), and Shawn Hall along with stage manager Tricia Anderson, weave their unique artforms into this multidisciplinary performance experience.  The piece is drawn from Randels’ experiences growing up in the church as the offspring of two generations of Southern Baptist preachers; teaching theater to and learning from the experiences of currently and formerly incarcerated women at the Louisiana Correctional Institute for Women for 24 years; a decade of dialogue and action with her home church investigating the ways in which faith communities can participate in long-needed criminal legal system reform in our state; and Del Giudice’s decade of work in identifying and addressing collective trauma.  We invite you to come witness this “Damascus experience” – and perhaps share your own – as a way to initiate or deepen the conversation around identifying the harm that has led to our current, dysfunctional legal system; and to collectively find ways to actively repair and end that harm.
