Black Stage Matters: Episode 2 enters the museum, but not quietly.
In this episode, host Josiah McCruiston sits down with Deborah Asante, director and Indianapolis theatre architect and founder of Asante Children's Theatre, and TJ Rowley, Artistic Director of the Indianapolis Black Theater Company and Black Light, for a rich conversation on George C. Wolfe’s groundbreaking work, The Colored Museum, written in 1986 but still powerful today.
Together, they explore the play’s biting satire, cultural memory, theatrical brilliance, and ongoing relevance. More than a discussion of a classic, this episode opens the door into the artistic process: how directors listen to the text, honor the ancestors, challenge the audience, and build a production that is both historically rooted and urgently alive.
Through conversation, reflection, and behind-the-scenes insight, this episode asks what it means to stage Black identity without flattening it, to use humor as both scalpel and sanctuary, and to create theatre that refuses to let our stories be trapped behind glass.
This is a conversation about process, power, legacy, and the responsibility of Black artists to hold the guard while still making room for the future to speak.
