On Thursday, Thoughts of a Colored Man has announced it will play at the Golden Theatre. The new play by Keenan Scott II, directed by Steve H. Broadnax III, has not yet announced official dates for its Broadway bow.
A powerful theatrical testament by Keenan Scott II, Thoughts of a Color Man weaves spoken word, slam poetry, and rhythm into a mosaic of the inner lives of Black men and heralds the arrival of an essential new voice to the American theater.
We’re thrilled to have a new home at the Golden Theatre ✨
