PREVIEW: BLACK D*CK MATTERS

“Provocative title aside, it is a serious, compelling, and timely theatre piece.”
Tyrone Brown, Director and Producer

Brownbox Theatre: Re-Imagined Black Theatre is proud to present the premier of Black D*ck Matters, by Kathya Alexander, award winning co-writer of Black to My Roots: African American Tales from Head and the Heart. According to the press release “It is a series of monologues that explore: 1) why Black d*ck matters 2) Black manhood in the context of American history 3) how Black male intimacy is intrinsically tied to social injustice and oppression 4)Black male relationships since the #BlackLivesMatter movement 5) how police brutality, and the criminal justice system are all common experiences for Black men regardless of their social standing.”

Tennessee Williams sets a Play in a Bar

The Williams Project Walks into a Bar …

And sets two plays there: Small Craft Warnings by Tennessee Williams and The Time of Your Life by William Saroyan. Same creative team led by director Ryan Guzzo Purcell, and the same actors.

How much can we guess Williams’s intentions from the title: Small Craft Warnings? As far as revealed during the play, none of the characters own a boat.

Good craft, professional acting, excellent direction. If you’re not expecting another Streetcar it’s an insightful evening of theater.

The Year of Magical Thinking- Enough Magic for a Year

This is one show that REALLY deserved its standing ovation.

Quadruple bypass surgery is mentioned in this adaptation of Joan Didion’s memoir, The Year of Magical Thinking and it gave me the right adjective to describe the production. Quadruple Winner, because the script, the acting, the directing and the tech work, all were worthy of the title: Magical.
