[Bridge of Unity in Diversity] A Girl’s Dream in Alabama
June 7 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm
On June 7th, 2024, ALIEEP hosted annual Challenge America performance with the mission of educating the local community on analogous birthday celebrations in different cultures.
In furtherance of this mission, we celebrate the success of our most recent performance. Directed by Angela Dickson, this year’s play titled “A Girl’s Dream in Alabama” showcases a teenage girl experiencing the diverse traditions of birthday celebrations among her friends.
The performance featured five traditional birthday practices from five distinct cultures: American, South Korean, Jewish, Latin-American, and Indian. These birthday traditions, along with traditional music and dances, were respectfully executed by the talented actors involved.
The play was a celebration of unity in diversity, highlighting how our unique backgrounds contribute to a happier, more colorful society. It also emphasized that one’s culture is an integral part of their identity and should be embraced with pride, as portrayed in the performance.
As ALIEEP continues to strive toward fulfilling the Challenge America goal, we eagerly anticipate the upcoming performances that are yet to be held!
