About the Show

"The Whites” takes us into a universe where the races are flipped and Whites are actually citizens of an ethnic underclass that is dominated by African-Americans.

Cliched, Disappointing

See it if This play had a good premise, but unfortunately it turned out to be a dumpster fire. Poor acting and writing and direction.

Don't see it if The only good thing was the live bassist on stage playing music.

Unfortunately hypocritical!, Thought-provoking, Disappointing, Cliched, Clever

See it if U want to see a clever new way of telling the race conflict in America. It is the typical stereotype story with no new content.

Don't see it if U r tired of similar race themed plays or are uncomfortable with such discussions. U prefer light entertainment. Read more

Funny, Thought-provoking, Absorbing

See it if It gives a slice of life of a black family (in a reverse world where whites are the underdogs). It uses humor to lighten the presentation.

Don't see it if It does not present a thorough or complete picture of discrimination in our country today, so you might learn little about the topic.
