In a small southern town, a Black man slowly understands the delusion of his attempts to assimilate and twist himself into who he thinks he must be to "make-it". Through enduring love, his community of friends, family, and his mute mother strive to teach him to reclaim pride for himself and his family history. They strive to teach this son how to shine.  

Performing via Zoom webinar. More information, bios, and a remote performance link are available at the Department of Theater website HERE. Email Theater Dept Administrator Milena Zuccotti with questions about viewing this performance.
