The Bitter Game
By Keith A. Wallace, Co-created with Deborah Stein

A solo performance charged with pain, poetry, and laughter, The Bitter Game blends verse, prose and shit-talkin’ into a stirring commentary that begs the question: what does it mean to survive while Black in America? Wallace explores the question of police agency and excessive force, the ripple effects of trauma in communities of color, and the value of Black lives in this country.

The Bitter Game is presented as part of Undercurrent: Theatre for Now a festival of creator-performed work at Single Carrot Theatre; each piece gives voice to a subject, point-of-view, or experience that is essential in today’s social and political climate.
