ooooh thank you for tagging me! my favorite theater piece was at a local community theater (where the best theater tends to be) that was like 5 pieces by black writers covering things from the complications in interracial relationships, trying to be a good mom, getting over being transphobic, there was one part about the strength and beauty of black women that made me cry. it was soooo good. as for musicals im gonna be super basic and say my favorites are hadestown and heathers (so gaddamn catchy) .
Hades town is fantastic! Out of the classics, I’m a big fan of Guys and Dolls. Repo: the Genetic Opera is really good too. Now you’ve got me wanting to write effort posts about deconstructing shows. The Whipping Man is a fantastic play that talks about race and religion in the immediate post Civil-war from an enslaved jewish perspective.
we need this commmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!
this sound super interesting ill check it out!!
I've always wondered, your username inspired by the Shakespeare piece?
yes!!! I relate to the character (have been gaslit by white people) and its great shorthand to show I am both black and a nerd.
