Teen Girls to Share Stories and Experiences on Stage at the Hudson School

A group of Hudson School students is taking to the stage to talk about their own lives.

On Friday and Saturday — at 8 p.m. on both nights — a group of young women will perform at The Hudson School Performance Space to share a glimpse into the life of teen girls today. The performance is based on the book I am an Emotional Creature by Eve Ensler.

The show includes much of performers’ own poetry, music and dance. The performers aim to show and discuss issues with which many adolescent girls struggle.  

The students appearing on stage are: Seun Akande, Sereba Diakite and Joyelle Gaines of Newark, Grace Castillo of East Newark, Truce Jack of Jersey City, Aissa Maiga of Union City, Lily Johnson of West Orange, Maia Kamil, Erica Rivera, Tova Silverberg-Urian and Mia Wong of Montclair, Luisa Garbowit of Short Hills,   Aliana Kilmer-Setrakian of Towaco and Francesca Valdez of North Bergen.

Admission is $10, for reservations email: lwittner@thehudsonschool.org.
