 Beauty's Daughter By Dael Orlandersmith
One Woman’s Journey to Triumph
A West Coast Premiere
Beauty’s Daughter by Dael Orlandersmith is a gripping and poetic one-woman play that explores the cycles of trauma, survival, and self-discovery in the heart of Harlem. At its center is Diane, a woman confronting the scars left by her charismatic yet deeply destructive mother, Beauty. Through a series of vivid monologues, Diane transforms into a tapestry of neighborhood characters—friends, lovers, and strangers—each reflecting the pain and resilience of urban life. With raw honesty and lyrical power, Orlandersmith crafts a portrait of a woman striving to break free from her past and reclaim her voice in a world that has tried to silence her.
