Description

If artists are good at anything, it's navel gazing. But when a long hard look in the mirror exposes latent racial biases, that can be a bit hard to accept. Jackie Sibblies Drury's well-reviewed play takes in the rehearsal room as a group of black and white actors workshop a production set in Namibia, and shines a harsh--albeit comical--light on the world of theater, exposing its lack of diversity and demonstrating how even the most politically progressive whites can still fumble the ball when it comes to empathising with people of color. It runs through Oct. 23.
