The Student Activities Council and the Office of Multicultural Affairs are bringing the award-winning play “Speak Theater Arts presents: N*GGER WETB*CK CH*NK” to Wichita State.

The performance is at 8 p.m. Monday, Sept. 20,in the CAC Theater.

The show will be free for WSU students with ID, $2 for WSU faculty and staff and $3 for the general public. Doors open at 7 pm. Seating is limited.

Blending theater, hip-hop, stand-up comedy, slam poetry and true-life stories with their own original style, three tour-de-force performers take on racial slurs, stereotypes and the concept of race itself in this 95-minute stage production.

Winner of Best Play from the American Readers Theater Association, “Speak Theater Arts presents: N*GGER WETB*CK CH*NK” charges into the dangerous territory of race, but without the predictable anger and angst.

The show traces the origins and evolution of three derogatory terms that have shaped the American culture. The goal of the show is to depower those words.
