This chapter contains Sandra L. Richards’s interview with Thelove conjure/blues Text Installation creator Sharon Bridgforth. In the first part of the interview, Bridgforth discusses how her penchant for writing together with her community organizing experiences led her to become involved in the early 1990s Austin, Texas, women’s theater scene. She then shares some of her own experiences creating shows, founding a theater company, and collaborating with women-of-color artists. After detailing her collaborative approach to her art-making process, Bridgforth expounds on how she drew on the theatrical jazz aesthetic to conceive The love conjure/blues Text Installation.
