Extraordinary VoicesTM
Touring Solo Performance Programs by Samantha Martí-Parisi
Extraordinary Voices™ is a touring solo performance series created and performed by Samantha Martí-Parisi, bringing history to life through compelling storytelling and theatrical performance. Each program centers on the true story of a remarkable woman whose impact shaped culture, science, or society — often without recognition in her own time.
Designed for intimate theaters, educational institutions, cultural organizations, and fringe festivals, these tour-ready performances blend rigorous research, narrative clarity, and theatrical craft to engage audiences across generations.
Behind the Scenes, Extraordinary Voices is being developed as a flexible, touring project — including potential out-of-region and future cruise enrichment presentations. Individual expansion phases may be rooted in specific communities and are shaped through partnerships with cultural organizations and venues across the Tampa Bay region.
Format: 40–55-minute solo “edu-tainment” programs blending theatre, history, and interactive discussion.
Ideal For: Museums • Historical Societies • Libraries • Universities • Community & STEM events • Travel & Corporate enrichment
Each production travels light — one performer, minimal props, maximum impact.
