Artistic Statement

Artistic Statement

I write plays to activate alternative views of our past, present and future in pursuit of truths that will empower us all. I proceed from an expansive perspective on our shared experiences and take the human imagination seriously. My growing body of work often unfolds at intersections of class, gender, sexuality, technology and race. Informed by my subjectivity as a black gay man, I am a dramatist committed to generating new work that speaks directly to the diverse audience communities the American Theater needs to thrive in the 21st century.
