About This Show

A bustling apartment stoop in a new black neighborhood in 1950s Atlanta brims with vitality and ambition, while a peek behind apartment walls reveals an intimate and steamy world of private bonds and struggles within. With a keen eye, vivid language and riotous humor, playwright S.M. Shephard-Massat captures a pivotal moment in one particular black community as it struggles over sex, shifting values, and an unknown future. Woolly Mammoth presents this world premiere, directed by Seret Scott.

The world premiere of S.M. Shephard-Massat’s play creates a vivid atmosphere, but ultimately tells more than it shows.
