Our Fathers, Sons, Lovers, and Little Brothers

Verb Theatre and Handsome Alice present Tarragon Theatre's touring production (based on the original B Current production), in its final leg, of Our Fathers, Sons, Lovers, and Little Brothers, written and performed by Makambe K. Simamba. (See a trailer for the show here!)

Slimm, a seventeen-year-old Black boy in a hoodie suddenly finds himself in the first moments of his afterlife. He calls out for God. God does not respond. What happens next is a sacred journey through the unknown, as Slimm grapples with the truth of the life he lived and the death he didn’t choose.

Our Fathers, Sons, Lovers and Little Brothers is a protest for all Black life beyond headlines and hashtags, a prayer for all families left behind, and a promise to the community that all Black lives matter.

September 12 - 28th @ The Big Secret Theatre, Arts Commons

Though our intentions to make a more generous ticket offer for students were, ultimately, not possible this time, we do want it to be known that there are plenty of volunteer positions available throughout the run, all of which allow volunteers to see the show for free. See a very handy Sign-Up Genius with all that information here.
