An Endless Shift @ ArtsWest (West Seattle)
Devised by Gloria Alcalá and Alma Davenport
A Documentary Theater Project
Created from verbatim accounts of the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic by the Seattle nurses who were there, An Endless Shift is a tribute to the everyday heroes who were confronted with what would become the longest shift of their lives. Seattle theater artist Gloria Alcalá, in a solo tour de force performance, embodies and voices the multitude of perspectives on the harrowing journey Seattle nurses faced in an ever-shifting landscape. It is a journey of challenge, hope, and deep recognition of our common humanity, told in the firsthand words of the humans who were there.
