This week on Catch up & Clue in we are joined by Kayla Stokes! Kayla is a director, writer, producer, and most importantly a storyteller. She is passionate about investigating and telling the stories of people from all walks of life. Recently she launched a podcast called Bias Bender. As producer and host, she explores the lives of Black women from the past and the present in order to imagine the future. In addition to her own podcast, Kayla works on various scripted audio plays and series. Kayla is a graduate of Carnegie Mellon University where she earned a BFA in Directing. Kayla is currently a part of Broadway Advocacy Coalition's first cohort of Artivism Fellows, and her work is supported, in part, by a 4Culture Arc Artist Fellowship. We are talking with Kayla about launching a podcast during a pandemic, theatre, and learning about Ella Baker and her involvement in the Civil Rights Movement.
