Theatre in the X presents
Staged Reading of American Nigga Zoo by Misty Sol
November 10th | 7:30pm
Atiya Ola’s Spirit First Foods 
310 S 48th St, Philadelphia, PA 19143

The piece examines the history of human zoos and the fine line between captivity and spectacle that is walked by today’s entertainers. What is it like to break out of the performance of Blackness that is projected by the gaze of white supremacy?

This event is free. The kitchen will be open to purchase food. 
Theatre in the X in embarking on a unique journey for our coming season. In addition to our annual August production in Malcolm X Park, in the Summer of  2020 we will also present an original play created with the West Philadelphia community in mind. We will have four community meetings between this winter and the spring as a basis for the play, and devise an original theater piece. 

We can't create this piece without YOU! Join us for one (or all!) of our community meetings to have your voice heard in the play.
