Sharon Washington ’81 performs from her autobiographical “Feeding the Dragon”

Nominated for the Outer Critics Circle and Lucille Lortel Awards for Outstanding Solo Performance and winner of the Audelco Award, Feeding the Dragon has been published by Oberon Books and is available as an Audible Theater recording. Q & A with the artist to follow.
