Playwrights Horizons Theater School presents...
Who’s Your Mammy?
Who’s Your Mammy? is a Variety Show led by the Master of Ceremonies FBW (which stands for Fat Black Woman), who dares to ask: What does it mean to be perceived as a modern-day Mammy? FBW, with the help of The Mammy Player/MP, go on a journey of exploring the beloved stereotype, the Fat Black Women inside of the ‘Mammy Suit,’ Fat Black girlhood and more. These topics are only deepened by the theatrical forms in which they are explored throughout the show. Get ready to go on a journey across decades, forms of media, and perceptions of blackness!
