"A Chip On Her Shoulder" is a docu-musical investigating the experience of women in the field of engineering. The performance features verbatim storytelling with turns of music and dance exploring stories of adversity, identity, diversity, and passion. The script is composed of interviews from the Roanoke community including engineering and technology students and mentors at Virginia Western Community College and Roanoke Blacksburg Technology Council members involved with WoTech. These interviews intersect with Virginia Tech stories from the original script. Come join the conversation of what it means to be an invisible or visible identity in the engineering workforce.

Refreshments and networking at 4:30 p.m.

Directed Kristin Rose Kelly, a 3rd year M.F.A. student at Virginia Tech in Directing and Public Dialogue.
