    Writer, a respected but obscure Black playwright, attempts to write the perfect, producible Black play. Despite Writer's efforts, her inclination toward truth and honesty in art conflicts with her desire for commercial viability. Try as she may to write the quintessential Black play that falls within the comfort zones of white and Black audiences, her subconscious artistic and political sensibilities leap to the fore. Her characters rebel. Finally, a humorous and suspenseful coup effectively deconstructs all of the clichés. Learn More
