DWB (driving while black) is a new chamber opera about racism, erasure, and the fear and love that black parents experience when they send their kids out into a world that too often sees them not as a child, but as a threat.

BARUCH PERFORMING ARTS CENTER WILL PRESENT “DRIVING WHILE BLACK” OPERA IN MARCH
[Theater\Driving While Black Opera]
DWB (driving while Black) is a new chamber opera about racism, erasure, and the fear and love that black parents experience when they send their kids out into a world that too often sees them not as a child, but as a threat. This powerful music-drama documents the all-too-familiar story of an African-American parent whose beautiful brown boy approaches driving age.
