University? Bullshit!
I declare at my own risk that I will marry too, have a bunch of babies and let that guy beat all these dreams out of my head...
Please God! I want to have white skin!
I don’t want to be a Gypsy all my life
I Declare At My Own Risk is the autobiographical story of Alina Serban's journey from a “gypsy ghetto” in Bucharest, to the Romanian care system and, ultimately, to New York and London to pursue her education and tell her story on stage.
