Black Sheep reimagines the "black experience" through a host of characters from cops, to drag queens, to Afropunk teenagers as they battle the community they supposedly come from while fighting their own isolation in search of an identity that lives outside the box of tribalism. Both humorous and thought provoking, Black Sheep is a theatrical exploration on those who despite their skin don't fit in with their own kin. The show comes to the Fringe for its West Coast premiere after a successful run at The Kitchen Theatre, Ithaca, New York, April 2015 and a New York City premiere at the Downtown Urban Theatre Festival this last May.
This is the 5th Solo Piece for award winning solo performer, actor, and poet Darian Dauchan. He is the 2012 winner of the Jerome Foundation's Stakeholder's Choice Award and one of his most recent shows Dead Boogie, a hiphop poetry musical was the 2012 winner of two Edinburgh Fringe Festival Musical Theatre Matters Awards. Black Sheep was commissioned by Kitchen Theatre Company(Ithaca, NY) with generous support from the New York State Council on the Arts.
