Undermain Theatre will present We are Proud to Present a Presentation…, an inventive new play from Jackie Sibblies Drury about a troupe of young actors gearing up to portray the extermination of the Herero tribe of Namibia. They’re passionate. Energetic. They’ve got piles of research. But what do they really know about being black Africans under German colonization? Is it possible to identify with the victims of history? What about the villains? There is danger in the game they’re playing, and fraught racial histories threaten to tear the troupe apart. As the actors dive further in, the play becomes a hilarious and head-spinning nightmare of identity.
