About The Show
Griffin, a black American volunteer, travels to Uganda from New York City to help build a village school and escape his church’s probing into his sexuality. But when he falls into a complicated relationship with a group of destitute, orphaned teenagers, he becomes obsessed with a mission that will change his and their lives forever. From the beautiful rolling hills of the Ugandan countryside to a stifling apartment in New York City, from a joyous celebration of African youth to a terrifying abduction 8000 miles away, Invisible Thread documents the story of a man battling to find his place in a world full of injustice and inhumanity and explores the question “is changing the world even possible?”
What We Did
We are part of the producing team which brought Invisible Thread into New York. We are currently producing the show and working to get the infectious energy of Invisible Thread to as many theaters and audience members as possible.
