DEAR MAPEL by Psalmayene 24
January 19 - February 13, 2022 at Mosaic Theater
Directed by Natsu Onoda Power
Music by Jabari Exum
Told with distinctive heart, musicality, and humor, Mosaic’s Andrew W. Mellon playwright-in-residence Psalmayene 24’s joyfully energetic story of loss and healing takes us from Park Slope, Brooklyn to Washington, DC, on a journey to connect with Psalm's estranged father, Mapel through a series of letters both real and imagined.
Natsu Onoda Power (Mosaic’s Charm; Georgetown University) directs and Jabari Exum (Marvel's Black Panther) provides music for this production which explores whether it is possible to alter relationships we have with those who have passed on.
Dramaturgy by Arena Stage’s Jocelyn Clarke.
Dear Mapel is generously underwritten by Leonade Jones.
