A BLACK & RED CHRISTMAS
(Working Title)
Friday, December 4th | 7-10pm
The Great Hall
138 S. Oxford St. Brooklyn, NY 11217
A mutigenerational Black family Christmas. Funny. Messy. Real.
Nana holding it all together. Pops in his chair with his opinions. The kids, the craziness, the raccoons on the roof, and love holding it all together anyway.
This is the Christmas we all know-- the laughter, the arguments, the forgiveness, the food, the family that hugs you even when its hard to hug.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
7:00 PM Doors Open
come in, grab some snacks, find your seat, settle in. This is family.
7:30 PM - Special Reading of A Black & Red Christmas
A staged reading of our new family dramedy. Laugh out loud. Feel it.
9:00 PM - Holiday Mix & Mingle After
Stay for our first Mix & Mingle of the new season. Meet the cast, meet our new artistic director, meet the ACT Now family, and help us toast to what's next.
WHO SHOULD COME:
Everyone. Bring family. Bring a friend. Bring somebody who needs a laugh and a hug this holiday season. This is family comedy, multigenerational, and perfect for first-time theater/film-goers.
GENERAL ADMSSION: $10
We're a communuty foundation, not a big theatre. Your $10 helps us recoup what it costs to host -- the hall, the artists, the lights. Its keeps us independent and keeps us coming back. Thank you for investing in Black arts in Brooklyn.
