Additional information
Her Portmanteau is an explosive story of betrayal and forgiveness, centering on a Nigerian mother in the U.S. and her two daughters who lived very different lives. A reunion forces them to reconcile their past, full of clashing traditions and a family legacy that spans time, culture and generations.
Her Portmanteau is one of an acclaimed nine-part play cycle by Massachusetts-raised and Wellesley-educated playwright Mfoniso Udofia. Growing up in Southbridge, Udofia rarely saw stories about Africans and African Americans that felt like her family, so she set out to create a richly textured, emotionally engrossing series of plays that follow one family through three generations. While each play stands alone, together they form a tapestry of stories that resonate with everyone. Registration is required. Cosponsored by Cambridge Public Library.
