DAY OF ABSENCE Written by Douglas Turner Ward
Winner of the coveted Vernon Rice and Obie Awards, this enormously amusing satire is described by the author as "A Reverse Minstrel Show." Here the all-black cast, made up in white face, recount the uproarious emergencies which occur when a Southern town is faced with the sudden and inexplicable disappearance of all its black citizens. "Laughter can be as effective as anger in telling white America what [Douglas Turner Ward] has on his mind." -NY Times. " "...a gust of fresh air among racial plays." - Life Magazine
