Dissonance, A New Play

After sold-out performances in Tallahassee, Pensacola, and Miramar Beach, Three Cord Productions brings Dissonance to Niceville, FL at the Sprint Theater at the Mattie Kelly Arts Center!

Dissonance is a 90-minute two-person play about race, love, and friendship. Angela, a Black woman, and Lauren, a White woman, have been friends for 20 years. They met in graduate school, became godmothers to each other’s children, and most recently, started a new business, but they have never had a candid conversation about race . . . until now. As they open their cafe in a historically Black neighborhood, they uncover deeply held perceptions about race and have to decide if being brutally honest and devastatingly vulnerable is worth the risk of their friendship’s potential end. On the heels of George Floyd’s murder and the summer of 2020, will these women allow themselves to have the hard conversation?

Saturday night performance includes a post-show talkback with the actors-writers and director.
