BRIAN COPELAND: NOT A GENUINE BLACK MAN
In 1972 The National Committee Against Discrimination in Housing called San Leandro a "racist bastion of white supremacy," becoming the subject of features on CBS News and Newsweek among other national outlets. As the US Commission on Civil Rights conducted hearings, Copeland’s
family moved to town—where they faced astonishing and humiliating harassment and isolation. A critically acclaimed exploration of race, identity, and empathy, "Not a Genuine Black Man" offers a unique blend of laughter, tears, and social commentary. During a previous run, Theatrius declared, "Copeland tells stories like a master. The tenderness and intimacy of Copeland’s storytelling gives way to a rigorous examination of the complexities of Black identity and
masculinity."
"Not a Genuine Black Man" debuted at The Marsh in San Francisco more than 10 years ago, going on to become the longest running solo play in San Francisco theatrical history.
BRIAN COPELAND & CHARLIE VARON: GREAT AMERICAN SH*T SHOW
Brian Copeland (NOT A GENUINE BLACK MAN, WAITING PERIOD) and Charlie Varon (RUSH LIMBAUGH IN NIGHT SCHOOL, RABBI SAM) join forces to present new monologues on life in the Age of Trump in THE GREAT AMERICAN SHIT SHOW.
Join us for an evening of laughing… but more importantly, for an evening of THINKING as we explore how to deal with a family member who’s all in for the Donald when you’re not, trying to turn red congressional seats blue in the Central Valley, #MeToo and more.
