  • Who Would You Trust to Tell Your Story?
    WHO WOULD YOU TRUST TO TELL YOUR STORY? Who would you trust to tell your story? That was the question that Cleveland activist Johanna Orozco-Fraser and journalist Rachel Dissell had to contemplate when playwright and director Tlaloc Rivas contacted them. His first email, sent on New Year's Day 2014, said in part: Your story came to my attention years ago. As you know, [Johanna's] story is an inspiration to many Latinos and young women across the country. I share your belief that stories and storytelling have the potential for social change. The plays I create aim to tell stories that provoke a conversation about important subjects between artists and audiences. I believe that Johanna's story has that potential. As it happens, I will be traveling to Cleveland [soon]... I'd like to talk with you about whether a play inspired by your articles can happen. The three met just a couple of weeks later. Orozco-Fraser, who survived a near-fatal attack by her ex-boyfriend and became a leading advocate for change in Ohio's domestic violence laws, had become lasting friends with Dissell, a Plain Dealer reporter, as Rachel wrote a series of articles chronicling Johanna's recovery in 2007 (the complete 9-part series is available here). Both friends decided that Rivas deserved their trust. They gave their blessing to his effort to bring their story to the stage. Just hours later, CPT Executive Artistic Director Raymond Bobgan offered the project a home at this theatre. As Rivas began to shape the script, Orozco-Fraser and Dissell became treasured advisors and collaborators on this new telling of the story.
