Hilarious NEIGHBORS now onstage at convergence-continuum
by convergence-continuum via NEohioPAL 12 Jul '17

12 Jul '17

OUTRAGEOUS, SHOCKING AND HILARIOUS “NEIGHBORS” By MacArthur genius award grantee Branden Jacobs-Jenkins Directed by Terrence Spivey, director of last year’s con-con hit production of “Bootycandy” CHECK OUT THE PROMO VIDEO HERE [1]! Classics professor Richard Patterson is not happy! The family of black entertainers that has moved in next door is an embarrassment—loud, raucous, tacky, shameless and obscene. They’re not just taking over the neighborhood—they’re infiltrating his perfect, interracial family and his perfect, post-racial sanity. In its scathing exploration of denial and its satire of black entertainment from blackface minstrelsy to hip-hop, NEIGHBORS is a shocking, explosive, hilarious and wildly theatrical play. NEIGHBORS runs Thurs-Sat at 8 pm through July 29 at the Liminis Theater, 2438 Scranton Rd, Cleveland 44113 in the historic Tremont neighborhood. Tickets are $20 general admission, $15 seniors (65+), $10 students. Reservations and information (AND PICTURES!) at convergence-continuum.org [2] and 216-687-0074. ------------------------------- Neighbors is sponsored in part by the people of Cuyahoga County through a grant from Cuyahoga Arts & Culture.
