The Chronic Ache of 26

The Annual Shades of Black Theatre Festival, presented by SistaStyle Productions and Destiny Theatre Experience, provides an outlet to uplift the voices of Black artists while being inclusive to artists of all backgrounds. The festival features full-length shows, opening mixers, staged readings, dance shows, films, workshops, and other special events.

Two Old Black Guys Just Sitting Around Talking is a theatre classic by Gus Edwards that is a hilarious, heartfelt journey into friendship, love, and aging. Directed by ABTF award-winning Keith Franklin, the play follows Henry, the calm and wise one, and Abe, his crotchety, quick-witted "friend" through sharp banter and stories about decades of life.
