“I’m guessing – or rather I’ve been told – that therapy is simply there to probe questions.
Questions that can help one find answers.

Written and performed by Hassan Govia, Unshaded Arts presents the world premiere of an explosive solo show that explores the long-term impact of bullying, engaging with issues of mortality, masculinity, privilege, and (undiagnosed) mental illness. This is their third full-length production, following the premieres of Govia’s debut and sophomore plays, Boujie and Bigot, as well as their signature new-writing event Universal.
