SHE LIKE GIRLS, inspired by the brutal murder of a fifteen year-old lesbian in Newark, New Jersey, tells the story of two inner-city girls who gradually fall in love with each other in a dangerously homophobic climate.
SHE LIKES GIRLS recently received a workshop production as a part of the Lark's Playwright's Week, and landed Chisa a nomination for the prestigious Wasserstein Prize. It received a stage reading by Working Man's Clothes in May 2008, and a workshop production at the Ohio Theater in November 2008.
Triggered by the 2003 murder of a Newark, New Jersey teenager, Chisa Hutchinson's She Like Girls is the story of two inner-city high school girls who fall in love in a dangerously homophobic climate.
"The play isn't about murder...it's more about the urban community, the urban family, and how they respond to homosexuality." -- Chisa Hutchinson
