Black Theatre Troupe of Upstate NY is excited to share a first look at our upcoming season: three powerful stories of resistance, resilience, survival, and the transformative power of theatre.
MY CHILDREN! MY AFRICA! by Athol Fugard October 22–November 1 A gripping drama set during apartheid-era South Africa, where education and political revolution collide.
THE COLOR PURPLE January 28–February 7 Based on Alice Walker’s beloved novel, this unforgettable story follows Celie’s journey through heartbreak, survival, and self-discovery.
THE AFRICAN COMPANY PRESENTS RICHARD III May 27–June 6 Inspired by true events, this play tells the story of America’s first Black theatre company fighting for space on the stage in 1821 New York.
Tickets coming soon, stay tuned for more announcements!
This season is supported in part by the NYSCA-A.R.T./New York Creative Opportunity Fund (A Statewide Theatre Regrant Program).
