Paige in Full

In-Person Pre-Recorded

Touring 24/25 & 25/26

Suggested for Grades 6 and Up

Created by Paige Hernandez from Baltimore, MD

Move your body rhythms reverberate in this beat-filled visual mixtape that blends poetry, dance, media, and music. Equal parts comedy, pain, and retrospection, Paige Hernandez uses the stage to share her own story as a multicultural girl growing up in Baltimore who is desperate to fit in and find her voice. Paige’s journey through hip-hop leads to self-discovery to become a leading artist of this generation. Sibling-duo Paige Hernandez (writer and performer) and Nick tha 1da (musician) in collaboration with Danielle A. Drakes (director) have developed a unique coming-of-age story that speaks to a dynamic hip-hop-influenced generation.

testimonial

“Her work was extraordinary – her show is smart, engaging, challenging, and relevant. The students laughed hard, got up and danced, went silent when the story turned serious, and stood cheering at the end.”

– Aimée M. Petrin, Executive Director, Portland Ovations
