Send your answer, in an email, by JULY 14, 2015 @ 5:00 PM with your NAME, LOCATION & the ANSWER to [email protected] – SUBJECT: AMERICAN MOOR for your chance to win the prize in our random drawing!
American Moor is funny, touching, and greatly entertaining while simultaneously asking important, complex and at times uncomfortable questions: Our national theater community prides itself on progressiveness and open expression. But are those the facts? Or is there actually a patronizing quality to our approach that we can see reflected in the play, Othello and in the culture at large? Beyond just the audition process, is there a racism that exists in our contemporary theater? And has it become a microcosm of progressive/liberal society that believes it has knowledge of the black experience when it bothers to explore it at all?
American Moor is nothing if not authentic, wholly unapologetic in its focus on the denial inherent in our cultural dialogue on race, and unwavering in its hope for change and forward progress. Tickets are $25 general admission, $20 for East of the River residents, seniors and students
