The Multiple Ports System™ is a unique process for developing plays that involves multiple workshops and readings in areas that are heavily populated by the people and cultures reflected in the play. Modeled off the systematic routes of the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade, MPS is an inverse system that distributes high level resources and expertise in storytelling and theatre development throughout areas that were historic slave ports and areas that participated in slavery. MPS is an act of restorative justice meant to inform and reshape the narrative of the surviving descendants of the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade.
