The Second City’s Afros & Ass Whoopins Tackles Race Issues With Musical Comedy
Second City Studio Theatre (Los Angeles, CA)
With headline-making cases of racial discrimination, police profiling and rioting in the streets, these have been a highly charged couple of years in America. Now the funny folks at The Second City are tackling these hot-button issues the way they do best: with a little bit of levity — and a whole lot of musical numbers! Premiering on The Second City Hollywood stage, Afros & Ass Whoopins is an original musical comedy that tells the story of a son who’s at odds with his father’s old-world views. As the show’s producers put it: “Everyone is tired of talking about race and the police … so we decided to sing about it instead!”
