AFL-CIO Washington, DC

Join Jillian in a pre-show concert on September 17 at 6:30 in front of the AFL-CIO in Black Lives Matter Plaza in D.C. before the Friday night performance of "Working in DC". Jillian is excited to have the opportunity to help bring art to the streets and to meld her two worlds of labor and music together for an evening. Come for the concert - stay for the show, you won't want to miss this!

About Working in DC: With a celebratory performance at BLM Plaza on the streets of DC and by sharing “the extraordinary dreams of ordinary people” through the lens of history, justice, activism, and the arts, Working In DC brings the spirit of the legendary Studs Terkel to life for the Washington, DC community. Proudly presented in collaboration with Labor Heritage Foundation, this project uplifts the working class during our pivotal time of racial justice reckoning, COVID-19, and political unrest.

Our site-specific, multidisciplinary, outdoor performance of Working: A Musical is paired with Something To Point To – our civic engagement and education programming. Join labor leaders and local artists in this unique and joyful cross-disciplinary celebration of frontline workers and the American labor movement through the songs of Stephen Schwartz (Godspell, Pippin, Wicked), James Taylor, Micki Grant, and Lin-Manuel Miranda (Hamilton, In The Heights).
