Raja and Daaimah’s question: “how do you arrange black bodies on stage?” transformed to: “how do you arrange black bodies on stage without being policed, without being politically correct, and directly from the black experience?” The Writer/Director Lab presented Daaimah and Raja a chance to develop a new play from the Everyday Afroplay collection using Naj and Dandy- two black intellectuals who have vastly differencing opinions and cultural experiences about life inside black skin. It is as literal as it is abstract. (thefeath3rtheory.com)
