'Some Old Black Man' is, on one level, about the black experience. But the essential concept is universal, one for which any adult who has had to care for an aging parent can easily summon buckets of empathy.
Starring Tony Award-winner Roger Robinson–who reprises his BPL staged reading role as Donald–and Leon Addison Brown, “Some Old Black Man” relates the experiences of two generations of African-American men in a post-civil rights movement culture.
BPL’s free Staged Reading Series brings artists and audiences into conversation around new plays in development. There is no admission cost but reservations are recommended.
