The Black That I Am

MAR 17- APR 2

Influenced by an original poem of the same name written by Karl O’Brian Williams, The Black That I Am is a theatrical meditation exploring questions on issues of blackness, gender, sexuality, and nationalism. It is the personal journey of a black Caribbean immigrant navigating “foreign” and feeling attached and non-attached throughout. Each section is intended to underscore and steer the audience off course from the main poetic narrative… a narrative constantly embodying Sankofa: looking back to go forward.
