Dinner with Dinah - Act II: Performance ONLY

Dinner with Dinah is an immersive dinner and performance created, written, and co-directed by Trapeta B. Mayson, and co-directed by Yolanda Wisher, unfolding on the grounds of Stenton Museum in Germantown.

The work centers Dinah, an African-descended woman who was enslaved and later indentured at Stenton in the 18th century. Long known through fragments of archival record and oral tradition, Dinah is reimagined here as a fully dimensional woman—mother, grandmother, laborer, beloved, and ancestor.

This is not a reenactment. This portion of the event is a performance in which multiple performers embody Dinah across interior states and moments through poetry, movement, and music, all on land Dinah would have known intimately.
