SigWorks: At the Full Yum
by Rahima R. Rice
7PM
Complete opposites Darecia and Jacob struggle to civilly co-parent their teenage son, Ohaji. When a riot that breaks out after a Black teenager is killed by police causes a lockdown, the two are trapped together in their Michigan Park neighborhood – with Ohaji nowhere to be found. The same night is then relived through an alternate reality in a thrilling and captivating reflection of DC – and those who call it home – outside the political bubble.
At the Full Yum is presented as part of SigWorks: Monday Night Play Readings, an initiative that highlights and supports the work of DMV and regional playwrights. This series is an opportunity for playwrights, actors, directors, and patrons to explore new plays in a fun and informal environment. To learn about our other SigWorks programs visit our SigWorks page.
Readings take place on Signature’s YouTube page, followed by a live Q&A with the playwright and director

Takeout from Ali's Bar
Get the full Signature experience at home during our next SigWorks: Monday Night Play Reading with takeout from Ali’s Bar. Order our famous grilled cheese or vegan chili – each will come with a drink and one of Signature’s famous chocolate chip cookies. If that isn’t enough cookies for you, add a half dozen more (or just order cookies for dinner, we won’t tell)! We will have it ready for you on Monday, September 21 before the play. Choose a time between noon and 6PM to pick up, come by the Theatre, and we’ll meet you at the door with your order.
