SALONNOIR, part lyric play/sketch revue and whole heartfelt farce, celebrating the artist journey of two high-school musical has-beens through an exploration of radical Black joy from Chicago to the Hollywood hustle. Think The Wiz meets In Living Color meets The Color Purple.
Our one-act show swings from sketch, to lyric play to afrofuturistic joy ride.In the vein of the Dark Tower Salons of the Harlem Renaissance, there will be music, movement, and a living multidisciplinary performance that evolves with the audience in an intimate black box theater.
Each audience will experience live and unique performances that raise questions and spark honest conversations around centering radical joy.
