Choreopoems are a powerful storytelling medium. We created this infographic to map concepts connecting choreopoems as ABKT, Self Efficacy and Dramatic Relief. After decades of creating choreopoems from Black women’s personal narratives, we are ready to explore the science behind the creative process.
Playwright and Public Health Professional, Cynthia C. Harris, MPH, has lead the development of choreopoems for Healing Waters Productions. She has long been interested in the connections between Black women’s storytelling through choreopoems and public health. Anecdotally, Healing Waters Productions has reflected on the generation and dissemination of health information through theater since the beginning.
