About
Created by Thandizo Joy | Produced by Lost Baggage Musical Theatre | Origin: Ottawa, Ontario
A new work with all-original songs, poems, and script by Thandizo Joy. Blending her Malawian heritage with poetry, rap, RnB, and musical theatre, she delivers a story about growth, resilience, and confronting parasitic patterns. What sends us on roads away from our community, and what happens when we take the long road back to them
