“The Negroes Are Congregating is a relentless, in your face, mélange of sketch, vignette, and spoken word that takes you to church and into the Black psyche living with anti-Black racism, all without missing a beat. The play is intricate, funny, contemplative, and incredibly fast-paced.”

About Meeeee.
I am a self-proclaimed soft-spoken, dramatic storyteller of Jamaican-Canadian descent. For the past decade I have dedicated my career to developing the contemporary voices of Black artists. In 2013, I founded PIECE OF MINE Arts, an initiative that presents works-in-progress by Black play creators, which has platformed over 200 artists. As for my personal projects, THE NEGROES ARE CONGREGATING (PIECE OF MINE Arts, Theatre Passe Muraille), is an acclaimed and timely play that explores internalized racism through a series of comedic, soulful and interactive vignettes. It has been presented in Canada, the United States, and Europe, as well as nominated for a Dora Mavor Moore Award for Outstanding New Play.
