A Note from the Playwright
Hey! I Heard You’re Black started out as a 10 minute submission to the Columbus Black Theatre Festival. While the play left the stage, the play didn’t leave me. Here we are several years later with a catalogue of monologues and scenes that can be curated to fit your performance needs. While the overall play ranges about 120 minutes if you choose to do every piece, I have chosen several scenes and monologues to make for a nice 90-minute night.
