Daughters Of Lillith
|
Daughters Of Lilith is directed by Ravyn Wngz and features an all Black woman cast. Daughters of Lilith is the story of six complicated sisters who are bound together through blood, Blackness, femininity, the past and the present. Each sister has a dual nature which is symbolic of the very vital dual nature in all women. It is a story about how Black women survive love, loss, heartbreak, misogynoir and trauma.
The sisters reunite in the forest, searching for their mother Lilith and for ways to remember their personal and collective magic. directed by | Ravyn Wngz written by | Dainty Smith starring Miranda Warner as Sister Warrior Sharrae Lyon as Sister Witch Amber Williams King as Sister Death Rania El Mugammar as Sister Jezebel Dainty Smith as Sister Wolf Steff Ivory Conover as Sister Daughter associate producer | Steff Ivory Conover stage managers | Laura Swan and Rinchen Dolma make up artist | Trixi Jones costume designer | Brooke Alviano Sound design | Nic Murray |
