Wine in the Wilderness
Black Repertory Group Theatre
3201 Adeline St Berkeley
Pulitzer Prize nominee Alice Childress (A Short Walk) wrote this 1969 one-act drama, set in an artist's apartment during the Harlem race riots. Bill is set to paint a portrait of the under-educated Tomorrow Marie as the representation of the ideal African woman, but his condescending perception of her kicks off a conflict that explores racism within the African-American community, not to mention sexism and intellectualism, among other issues. VIP tickets to the show include a glass of Champagne, preferred seating, a backstage meet-and-greet and more.
