Described by Philadelphia-based playwright James Ijames as "an expressionistic buzzsaw through the contemporary myth that 'all lives matter,'" Kill Move Paradise takes an unflinching look at the collateral damage of our biases and our assumptions about young black men.
Audacious, often funny, and totally uncompromising, Ijames' writing holds a mirror to the ways we rewrite the narrative of the slain - and gives us a chance to see the dead not as degenerates who deserved death, but as heroes who demand that we see them for who they are.
Starring Darnell Pierre Benjamin, Landon Horton, Crystian Wiltshire and Elliott Young and directed by Piper Davis. Running March 2 - 24. Tickets and info at https://knowtheatre.com/season-20/kmp/
