Love in Exile (2026)

Against a backdrop of live jazz, this powerful theatrical piece explores Black love and resilience, blending scripture with original free-verse and prose by Davis from his work “The Ghetto.” Within that narrative, a husband and wife engage in a tense dialogue about the emotional and bodily wounds inflicted by systemic oppression. They wrestle with whether love can flourish amid urban poverty, infestations, and governmental neglect—and whether sheer endurance alone is enough to survive.
