A Bedtime Story for Black Boys on the Moon

A Bedtime Story for Black Boys on the Moon is a dark and poetic exploration of the unique brand of loneliness experienced by black boys in America. With just a few gadgets to occupy his endless days, Saint, our protagonist, finds himself hurled into a journey of self-discovery and solitude that challenges his very conception of self. This play asks the question, how do we protect the lightest parts of ourselves from the darkest ones?
