OHHH SNAP! 👀👀👀

Raven Theatre and About Face Theatre are THRILLLLLED to announce the cast & production team of A Strange Loop by Michael R. Jackson!

You’re in for a treat with this group of people, y’all.

About A Strange Loop:
Usher is a Black, q***r playwright who spends his days working as an usher on Broadway. He spends his nights struggling to write an original musical about a Black, q***r playwright who spends his days working as an usher on Broadway. Lines blur, thoughts intrude, and soon he finds himself wrestling to break free from a very strange creative loop.

This blistering, groundbreaking, Pulitzer Prize winning musical explores identity, race and sexuality through the lens of a young artist at war with a chorus of his own demons and inner voices on a journey towards understanding and self love.

OCTET IS OPEN!! And reviews are coming in…

“Raven’s ensemble meets the musical challenge with a technically precise and emotionally transparent blend of voices. The sound is often breathtaking, and there are passages that continue to linger and shimmer even after the music has ended.” - Third Coast Review

Yeah, they ate that up.

People are LOVING OCTET! Be part of those people!!
