A one man and orchestra show that explores the magical word “if” and how true liberation grows from an understanding of the manifestation of self within body, mind, soul, and spirit, specifically toward a people but universally towards all. The term blackness is redefined through story, monologue, characterization, poetry, and song as it addresses current issues with the buried history of Black bravery and excellence.

After the performance, there will be a 30-minute Q&A session led by Richard Middleton-Kaplan.
