Jerrie Johnson Instagram – 🎙 Season One, EP 7: Jerrie Johnson 🎙️Jerrie Johnson (she/they) doesn’t just play a role—they embody purpose.
With a BA from Penn State in Performance Studies and an MFA from the American Conservatory Theater, they’ve worked in every corner of performance—from indie films (Mother’s Milk) to major streaming platforms (Harlem, Good Trouble, Survival of the Thickest).
But what sets Jerrie apart isn’t just talent—it’s their deep commitment to making art that heals, to holding space for truth, and to making room for other voices to rise.
Their solo show with SFBATCO during lockdown was a breakout moment. Their poetry—raw, honest, spiritual—speaks to Black queer embodiment and liberation. Now, they’re building a retreat farm: a sanctuary for artists to rest, reset, and remember who they are.
We dive into all of it on this week’s episode of The Frogs Podcast. If you care about art as activism, legacy over fame, and creating from a place of joy—this conversation will live in you.
