NEW YORK, February 4 — What is Black theater? How is it defined and by whom? What is the relationship between the Black dramatist, their creation and the Black community at large? “Looking for Leroy” by Larry Muhammad explores these questions through the legacy of LeRoi Jones/Amiri Baraka, who was one of the most important dramatists the 20th century and who defined the role of the Black playwright for our age. This two-character play imagines five encounters between Baraka, a literary lion now in his 60s, and an intern in his 20s who idolizes him, challenges him and aims to be like him. Woodie King, Jr.’s New Federal Theatre will present the world premiere of the piece February 28 to March 31 at Castillo Theater, 543 West 42nd Street. Petronia Paley directs.
