Five provocative and surprising one-act plays about all manner of need, love, and survival.
Kermit Frazier is one of the most underrated, under-the-radar African American playwrights of his generation.... [His] plays are both lyrical and richly theatrical. And while they typically deal unflinchingly with the landscape of African American life and the socio-political issues of that life, the scope of his work ranges far beyond that culture.
Woodie King, Jr., Producing Director, New Federal Theatre
DINAH WASHINGTON IS DEAD
Two Black Air Force officers struggle to cope with isolation and longing in West Texas.
Frazier has a perceptive feel for the rhythms of battle between lovers.... This is a beautifully shaped play...
Damien Jaques, Milwaukee Journal
CLASS REUNION
Three Black former high school classmates meet in a mind-twisting, revelatory reunion.
...[a] relentlessly haunting piece of writing. ...a bizarrely beautiful work that, like life, is better equipped with questions than with answers.
Joseph Hurley, Other Stages
THE EXTERMINATOR
An elderly white woman strives to survive through memory, hope, and strange visitations in a seemingly contentious urban landscape.
A BIRD'S EYE VIEW
Two Black male figures search for purpose and companionship in a disruptive, destructive, principally white world.
ELSE
In the frightening, chaotic early months of the COVID-19 pandemic, a Black mother and daughter come together both to grieve and to search for reconciliation.
