Dutchman and The Slave

Dutchman and The Slave – Theater Production

October 31 @ 17:00 November 16 @ 23:30

Experience a groundbreaking theatrical event with Dutchman and The Slave, a powerful two-act presentation that reimagines two classic works by acclaimed playwright and activist Amiri Baraka, formerly known as LeRoi Jones.

Dutchman delivers a charged and symbolic retelling of the Adam and Eve story, set entirely on a subway car, exploring themes of desire, conflict, and societal tension. The Slave delves into racial dynamics in modern America, following Walker Vessles, a Black man confronting the complexities of visiting his ex-wife—now married to a white professor.

This production merges both plays into a single, seamless performance, offering audiences a unique experience unlike any previous staging. Expect thought-provoking dialogue, intense performances, and a creative interpretation that brings new depth to Baraka’s enduring works.
