“This is not a play about victimization…It is instead an authentic, at times almost hysterical wake-up call to the black community, sounded from within." —NY Times.
This Fall, The|Griot|Project will be mounting our rendition of Cheryl L. West’s, powerful family drama, Before It Hits Home.
Before It Hits Home follows the last few months in the life of Wendal Bailey, an African-American bisexual male in his early 30's with AIDS who is caught between two worlds; one which revolves around his lovers, the other based in the home of his extended family - his mother, father, "aunt", brother and 12-year-old son.
Media and reviewers are invited to attend a special preview showing as guests of The Griot Project , November 15th. General audience may attend the preview show with an admission price of $10. The show opens November 22nd to all audiences with a ticket price of $20.
