Its very title would have conjured up then, as it does now, the unnecessary death of a man in custody or at the hands of the police. Although in the play there is the death of Shakie (Nickcolia King-N'da)'s father, a jazz musician in Manchester, the title The Death of a Black Man may be a metaphor.
What could be a better theme for this un Broadway musical than in the times of Covid to show kindness to others, and oneself!
