Black life and death and places them center stage. This limited engagement features a star-studded rotating cast of artists and activists. Each performance promises a unique experience.

A profound work that pivots from the biggest questions around racism and police violence to the most intimate concerns of a father for his son,

Between the World and Me offers a powerful framework for understanding our nation’s history and asks: What is it like to inhabit a Black body and find a way to live within it? And how can we all honestly reckon with this fraught history and free ourselves from its burden? Between the World and Me, both the book and the theatrical event, is an eye-opening, emotional look inside these conversations.
