HOW TO BE A WHITE MAN

“Incredibly powerful! Turns old narratives on its head and leads the audience to think.”

— Jeff Chang, Executive Director of the Institute for Diversity in the Arts at Stanford University

CREATED BY Luna Malbroux
DIRECTED BY Rodney Earl Jackson Jr.
ASSISTANT DIRECTED BY Isabel Hansen

DATES March 23- April 1, 2018
LOCATION African American Art and Culture Complex

DESCRIPTION Created by writer, comedian and cultural humility educator Luna Malbroux, How to Be a White Man is a dynamic story about a journey to self-discovery amidst the challenges of navigating identity, power and privilege. W.E.B. DuBois' theory of double consciousness gets revisited in this theatrical comedy that positions two institutional opposites together. Determined to get ahead, no matter what, Michelle attempts to land her dream job while grappling with the concept of white male privilege. A unique approach to unpacking power and identity, How to Be a White Man unapologetically raises critical questions in tangent with exploring the role of casual racism.
