Apollo Presents
Hang Time
A Flea Theater Production
Written and Directed by Zora Howard
Experience this searing theatrical work written and directed by Harlem-bred Pulitzer Prize Finalist Zora Howard in community and kinship at The Apollo Stages at The Victoria. HANG TIME explores the interiority of Black men in America, and the ways in which their humanity can triumph over the brutality that has been brought against them.
Three men chew the fat under an old, wide tree. In HANG TIME, we peek into the interiority – the great loves and bitter blues – of Black men in America. Setting the romantic and the macabre in sharp relief, HANG TIME invites the viewer to envisage the living Black body triumphant over the legacy of violence that it holds.
“A startling and stunning tableau…an absolutely heart wrenching and hauntingly beautiful experience” – The Front Row Center
“A bruising statement about the systemized dehumanization of Black men... a stunning picture of the ‘strange fruit’ that Billie Holiday sang about, of Black bodies swinging from trees... The writing is bleak and colorful and gorgeous enough for poetry.” – Lighting & Sound America
