Demerara Gold

An award-winning solo show, written and performed by Ingrid Griffith.

At just seven years old, free-spirited Demerara is left in Guyana with her eccentric grandmothers as her parents journey to the United States in search of a better life. What follows is a poignant coming-of-age story filled with culture shock, resilience, and humor. Demerara Gold captures the heartache, hope, and unyielding spirit of immigrant families through the eyes of a young girl learning to navigate two worlds.
