Creative Director for the show, Abeo Jackson explains that “STRIPPED is where the culture is valued and celebrated in multiple ways. Those celebrations are onstage through the performances, in the ways we frame and represent lyrics, movement and music that underscore the magical, powerful energy.” Noting that the representation is essential to the creation of safe and revolutionary spaces, Jackson says that “(…) it is beautiful synergy within the Stripped Experience that makes a point of being different: making room for newer, revolutionized, hybridity of expression within what we come to accept as the Carnival season.”
