Fountain Theatre (Los Angeles, CA)
Based on the award-winning book of the same name by Claudia Rankine, hailed as “brilliant” by The New York Times, this thrilling and powerful world premiere of the stage adaptation delivers a timely and provocative meditation on race. Fusing poetry, prose, movement, music and the visual image, Citizen: An American Lyric examines the everyday moments of racism that populate each of our lives. Subtle glances, snide remarks, slips of the tongue — some of these incidents seem to be unconscious slights, while others are intentional, poisonous slurs. This lyrical production from Fountain Theatre is filled with vignettes and snapshots of the omnipresent racism that still so deeply troubles our modern world.
