Roots Theatre Company and ACS are proud to present ‘For Black Boys Who Have Considered Suicide When the Hue Gets Too Heavy’ by Ryan Calais Cameron.

The play explores Black masculinity through the lives of six young British men—Jet, Midnight, Obsidian, Onyx, Pitch, and Sable—meeting for group therapy. Inspired by Ntozake Shange’s seminal work, the play utilises a blend of monologues, dance, and music to confront raw themes of systemic racism, trauma, sexual abuse, and the suffocating pressures of toxic masculinity.

By baring their vulnerabilities, the characters find strength in brotherhood, ultimately transforming their shared pain into a profound celebration of resilience and survival.
