The highly anticipated award-winning play, A Little Bit of Paradise is now available in print!
Little Bit of Paradise is play about women who make choices in a world without many options. It's a play about coincidence and the magic that happens around moments. It's a play about defining family to countless individuals of the African Diaspora who haven't of knowing where their lineage begins.
And its a play about masks, how we wear them, when we wear them, and why we wear them.

Hush now takes the reader on a fierce journey through Daniels Taylor's powerful rhythmic tour of early American Black feminism!
