"Good Birth" by Patrick Earl is a new play about The Virginia State Colony for Epileptics and Feebleminded. This facility, right across the James River, is now called The Central Virginia Training Center. It became known for its forced sterilization of the poor and people of color. It was also the facility at the center of the 1927 Supreme Court decision Buck v. Bell that upheld a physician’s right to forcibly sterilize a patient. "Good Birth" is a fictional tale of a young girl asked too soon to fight for her right to bear a child and suffer society’s misguided view of intelligence; all while facing down the brute force of the American Eugenics Movement in the early 1900s. This play contains REFERENCES TO SEXUAL ABUSE AND VIOLENCE.14 - Fri^7:30 p.m.Endstation Theatre's Playwright's Initiative Reading Festival

"Whirlwind" by Cris Eli Blak - Every sport is more than a game, and every moment of change is made possible by someone opening a door that was previously locked. This is the lesson learned by Grady, a high school tennis player with a chip on his shoulder who finds himself traveling to Lynchburg, Virginia, to be trained and coached by Dr. Robert Walter 'Whirlwind' Johnson. A medical doctor, coach, former college athlete, activist, respected community member - Dr. Johnson seems to have it all, and Grady wants to better himself to get to that level. Little does he know Dr. Johnson is trying to knock down a wall of his own, both in terms of fighting against the past and trying to forge into a future of tennis being an integrated sport.16 - Sun^2 p.m.Endstation Theatre's Playwright's Initiative Reading Festival
