By E. Patrick Johnson
Performed by Jamar Jones
Directed by Joseph Megel
Originally written and performed in 1999 by School of Communication Dean E. Patrick Johnson, this autobiographical work unfolds in eight movements, tracing Johnson’s journey as a queer Black man coming of age in the American South.
Now, twenty-five years later, director Joseph Megel and actor Jamar Jones revisit the piece in a dynamic workshop presentation that reimagines the many identities
which the playwright’s queerness flows — professor, preacher, drag artist, club kid, and more.
The performance culminates in a transformative voyage to Ghana, West Africa, where our protagonist confronts and redefines his relationship to race, gender, and sexuality in a deeply personal reckoning.
