Seat of the Pants' production of AMERIKIN continues for the next two
weekends, Friday and Saturdays at 7:30 and Sundays at 2:30. Tickets are
$20-$32 and can be purchased at *amerikinsotp.eventbrite.com
<http://amerikinsotp.eventbrite.com/>. This weekend, join us for a
talkback with the cast following the Saturday performance, or for a chat
with Caroline Jackson Smith, professor of theater and Africana studies at
Oberlin, after the Sunday matinee.*

When new father Jeff Browning receives the results of an ancestry test that
he's taken to gain admittance to a white supremacist brotherhood, he gets
an unexpected surprise. What transpires garners the attention of a
prominent Black journalist-- attention that Jeff (and his small town)
aren't sure they want. A dark comedy about the lengths we'll go to to feel
connected to something larger than ourselves, AMERIKIN makes a passionate
and provocative case for walking a mile in someone else's shoes -
regardless of the cost.

Directed by Craig Joseph, produced and assistant directed by Jeannine
Gaskin, the production stars Michael Glavan*, Chennelle Bryant Harris, Mugs
Johnson, Rachel Lee Kolis, Andy Knode*, Katherine Nash, and Geoffrey Short.
Sam Landgraf stage manages, with scenic design by Alan Costa, costume
design by Victoria Mearini, sound design by Megan Trimarchi, lighting
design by Micah Harvey, props design by Mia Jones, and cultural consultancy
by Martine Kei Green-Rogers. (*denotes member of Actors Equity)

Content Advisory: racial slurs, descriptions of suicide, postpartum
depression, and a visible gun

*AMERIKIN is supported in part by the residents of Cuyahoga County through
a public grant from Cuyahoga Arts & Culture.*

*Seat of the Pants' 2024-2025 season is made possible in part by the
generous support of The Cleveland Foundation.*
