September 15 - October 1, Thursday, Fridays, Saturdays, 8:00-9:30pm
In Type/Caste a queer, black actor dreams of a dazzling career on the American stage but will first have to leap over obstacles placed by an industry that isn't always welcoming to applicants who are neither white nor straight.
Based on Rotimi's real life experience as a professional actor, Type/Caste is a fast paced and humorous journey into the peaks, pitfalls, and hallucinations of a young artist's quest for success in a gentrified and commercialized industry as he attempts to create outsider art in a profession that favors insiders. In this moment of #OscarsSoWhite, Type/Caste is a personal look at the politics of (mis-) representation on the American stage.
