Black plays outlook
FEB 17-20 at ARTSEMERSON – Octavia Butler’s Parable of the Sower
FEB 23-27 at ARTSEMERSON – Dreaming ZenZile, Soma KaKoma
We think Black movies and Black Plays have Black/African American executive producers, playwriters, and lead actors. Not all live stage theatre is on “Boston’s Broadway” block.
