Mainstage

As the sun rises on an ordinary day in New York, seven men are about to discover the extraordinary. Thoughts of a Colored Man blends language, music, and dance into a daringly universal new play. It sheds brilliant light into the hearts and minds of a community of men searching for their most triumphant selves.

1957. A teen-ager is accused of murdering his father. His fate rests with twelve jurors. Prejudices, passions, and human failings collide in a search for truth as a young man’s life hangs in the balance. A taut and absorbing drama as compelling now as when it was written.
