The Magnetic Theatre is proud to present Black When I Was A Boy, a hilarious, heart-breaking, and wondrous show about facing racism with creativity and ingenuity. Black When I Was A Boy is an honest, moving, and humorous look at a powerful coming of age story. It's Cooper Bates' autobiographical recollection of the inner life of his younger self - Frankie Bates. Growing up as a black child in a small caucasian community in Kansas, Bates never saw himself as black until he was cast as Jim in the school production of Huckleberry Finn.
