MyCarl Productions,in association with KAMPFIRE FILMS, is pleased to announce the world premiere production of Kevin R. Free's NIGHT OF THE LIVING N-WORD!!, directed by Nicole A. Watson as part of the 20th annual New York International Fringe Festival - FringeNYC. NIGHT OF THE LIVING N-WORD!! will perform on Tuesday August 16 @ 2pm, Wedensday August 17 @ 9:15pm, Saturday August 20 @ 7:15pm, Tuesday August 23 @ 9:30pm, and Friday August 26 @ 4:30pm at The Players Theater (115 MacDougal Street).

There's nothing scarier than a white woman bent on saving a race! When guests at Channing's party go missing, Barbra holds the key. A slasher-comedy with a bloody point. You can bury the N-Word; can you make it DIE?!

NIGHT OF THE LIVING N-WORD!! is a socially-relevant comedy with a sharp point. The play, a parody of the horror movies "Night of the Living Dead" and "April Fool's Day" contributes to the conversation happening in and around black theater and the #BlackLivesMatter movement about police brutality and blackness under the white gaze.

The production stars Aaron Parker Fouhey (Are You Not Entertained?) as Channing, Obie Award-winner Kevin R. Free (The Fantasticks; The Fire This Time Festival; Gemma & The Bear!) as Ben, Eevin Hartsough (New York Neo-Futurists; Gemma & The Bear!) as Barbra, Romeo Lacandola and T. Thompson (The Messiah Complex)...more casting To Be Announced.
