Playwright Pearl Cleage created sharp-witted Angry, Raucous, and Shamelessly Gorgeous in 2018 to explore an intergenerational conversation among Black women of all ages and to offer a feminist critique of how Black women were portrayed in August Wilson’s early plays, providing a soulful and comedic take on art, activism, and aging on your own terms. Now, the play makes its way to Los Angeles at the Geffen Playhouse, with opening night on June 18th and running through July 12th.
