Beskrivning

“That’s a powerful message! Theywon’t want to see that.”“It isn’t, at all, and that’s exactlywhy they’re gonna love it.”It’s the big day. The announcement is in a few hours’ time, and film producers David and Kate anticipate their prestigious Civil War epic Catch Me Some Freedom will be nominated for plenty of Goldies. Until, however, they learn that the film’s heroic lead role, played by a white actor, was in real life actually Black.Fearing an intense and career-jeopardizing backlash, David and Kate frantically try to avoid public scrutiny, and keep the film from getting any attention whatsoever.This edition of Press - one of Black Bat Productions’ most acclaimed plays, and now a signature piece for playwright Nathaniel Brimmer-Beller - was published to coincide with the production at the Jack Studio Theatre in June 2025.
