Blackademics

There’s something strange about this trendy new restaurant. When Ann and Rachelle meet there for dinner, there’s already tension in the friendship they’ve built on their common experience navigating academia as Black women. At first it’s easy to overlook odd things, but as the hunger sets in, the two professors find themselves the unknowing stars of an absurdist dinner theater performance of Black plight. A sharp, surreal satire about who gets a place at the table.
