Thursday November 19, 2026 6:30 – 8:30 PM Told in three acts, the work is as hybrid as the performer behind it. Part memoir, part performance, and part recital, this monodrama explores the innate courage found in the full exploration of the self in a world designed to hide it from you. Good Church Boys Do Not Become Artists explores the marriage between words and song, calling up the question: what does it mean for a queer Black American classical singer to not just be an interpreter of music, but a creator of music and worlds, blurring the line between interpreter, creator, librettist, singer and composer into a complete whole? Featuring the music of Roland Hayes, James Dargan, Mary Prescott, Jay St. Flono and Patricia Ellen Turner, Good Church Boys Do Not Become Artists hurls the audience into a defiant act of realization and self-discovery.
