Black When I Was A Boy

What I liked

Storytelling and synthesis. Not just a sequence of episodes — there’s a a sense of journey and formation of identity that gets rendered here — very saucy!!

Also, for all the brains, the man is a visceral presence / communicator / connector. The one who feels himself, feels all!!

What I didn't like

Is this for Cooper’s eyes only?
-
I heard this was part one - that some future iteration will have an intermission and a riveting part two. . .

Can’t wait!

My overall impression

Cooper’s story told through the embodiment of characters in his one-man show will rip your balls off and tear your heart open. I saw this show during the week of celebrity suicides. I thought, Kate Spade and Anthony Bourdain MISSED THIS. THIS IS WHAT MAKES LIFE WORTHWHILE.
