About

The Lorraine Hansberry Theatre and MoAD present a reading of Welcome to the Sandbox by LaToya Morgan. Upon returning home from Operation: Iraqi Freedom, a female Army medic struggles to reconnect with her husband, daughter and civilian life, only to discover that coming back to the home front can be as difficult as surviving on the battlefield.

Los Angeles native LaToya Morgan is an alumna of the American Film Institute Conservatory where she received a MFA in Screenwriting. Post-graduate school, she was selected as a Fellow in Film Independent's Project Involve and later had her feature script place in the distinguished Nicholl Fellowship.

She is also a 2011 alumna of the prestigious Warner Bros. Writers' Workshop and a newly minted member of the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences. She is a member of the Producers Guild of America and a 2013 participant in the Power of Diversity Workshop.

LaToya has been a writer on the Showtime series Shameless, NBC's Parenthood and is currently writing on the new AMC series Turn.

The Lorraine Hansberry Theatre at MoAD is a collaboration that connects theater and the visual arts, bringing both audiences together, making each art form more accessible and relevant to both constituencies and providing context across art forms. Each presentation will be followed by an audience discussion.
