Drama

by Debra Ann Byrd

Becoming Othello: A Black Girl’s Journey is a 90-minute, 5-Act, living memoir about a young woman’s trials and triumphs with race and the classics, her memorable experiences growing up in East Harlem and her gender flipped journey on the road to becoming Shakespeare's noble, flawed general.

The solo show is complete with moving songs and lyrical language from Black women playwrights, William Shakespeare, Langston Hughes, Martin Luther King, Jr., Frederick Douglass, Harriet Tubman and the King James Bible.

This solo show is a personal, poignant and powerful story of perseverance, tragedy, triumph—and ultimately unconditional love.

One performance only. At Whitaker Center’s Sunoco Theatre, Harrisburg

Part of Gamut Theatre’s ClassicsFest
