Dixon+, Natalie Green*, Anjanette Hall*, Katrice Headd+, Maya Jones+, Nathan A.

Presented through the eyes of the onstage playwright BJJ, this pre-Civil War tale set in the Deep South tells of a slave owner’s affections for a woman whose blood is one-eighth Black. AN OCTOROON promises to be ripe for audience conversation around race in today’s society, and the role that theater plays with this dialogue. Content advisory: AN OCTOROON contains adult language, themes and disturbing images.
