a strange loop

a co-production with front porch arts collective

“A dazzling ride.  No measure of praise could be too much.” – The New York Times

Winner! 2020 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and 2022 Tony Award for Best Musical!  Michael R. Jackson’s blisteringly funny masterwork exposes the heart and soul of a young artist grappling with desires, identity, and instincts he both loves and loathes. Meet Usher: a Black, queer writer writing a musical about a Black, queer writer writing a musical about a Black, queer writer.  Hell-bent on breaking free of his own self-perception, Usher wrestles with the thoughts in his head in an attempt to capture and understand his own strange loop.

CONTENT ADVISORY

A Strange Loop contains explicit language (including racial slurs), references to racism, sexual assault, and homophobia, and scenes of an adult/sexual nature.
