Described as a play “which weaves spoken word, slam poetry, and rhythm into a mosaic of the inner lives of Black men, is told over the course of a single day in the heart of Brooklyn, as the ‘hopes, sorrows, fears, and joys of seven men reverberate far beyond the barbershops and basketball courts of their community.”
Thoughts of a Colored Man premiered worldwide in 2019 at the Syracuse Stage with direction by Steve H. Broadnax III, who will also direct the show on Broadway.
