White for a Weekend (Audio)

Jan 01, 1991
Created by Homer Jackson
A comedy drama, speculating on what being white could mean to a non-white. The story follows the misadventures of Bobby Burnett, a young black sales representative who becomes a winning contestant in the bizarre game show, "White for a Weekend." More than simply a revamped reversal of "Black Like Me," the work touches on social, economic, cultural, and sexual myths, and the realities of contemporary race relations. Commissioned by New American Radio.
