Face to face : back to back

Abstract

Face to Face (Back to Back) is a play that confronts topics such as gender stereotyping, sexuality, and toxic masculinity. The play follows Lillian and Benjamin, two collegiate ballroom dancers who struggle to find their place in the world of collegiate ballroom competitions and their place with each other. They come together in an effort to inspire change in the ballroom world—one that is generally stuck in old world traditions and strict gender roles. I wrote Face to Face (Back to Back), organized marketing efforts, and produced a staged reading of the play.
