Eulogy for the Black Man (Jamal's Body of Works)
No Customer Reviews
A full length play done in an ensemble format with four actors. It is a farcical comedy that explores through various comedic vignettes some of the negative black male images in our African-American communities. A well-to-do black church has hired a preacher to give a eulogy for a casket full of black men they want to expunge from their presence. "Reverend Leroy III," is contracted by a prosperous church to do "a Eulogy" and finds out it is for many unknown Black men, who are to be buried in mass in a raggedly paupers coffin. The Rev is upset that the "ceremony" is a farce and that the church community wants to just "bury" these negative personalities without acknowledgment. Which he refuses to do. Instead of giving a eulogy, the preacher turns the table on the congregation and uses the ushers and himself to give renditions of some of the negative black men stuffed in the coffin. .
