Check out Black Broadway on U at Woolly Mammoth! On its way to Broadway, A Strange Loop has arrived at Woolly. Before the Harlem Renaissance, the Black arts and culture movement thrived on D.C.’s U Street later known as “Black Broadway."
Woolly is honored to be partnering with Black Broadway on U for "A CULTURAL & HISTORICAL LOOP: ‘ROUND D.C.’S BLACK BROADWAY ON U," a multimedia lobby exhibit up during the run of A Strange Loop.
This exhibit showcases the Black joy, Black life, Black pride and Black power found in D.C.’s historic “Black Broadway” along U St., despite the oppressive laws of the Jim Crow era. From the 1920s-1950s, Black venues including the neighborhood’s unsegregated concert halls, lively nightclubs, and luminary
theatres hosted round-the-clock and afterhours performances. Take a “ loop” around this storied neighborhood, and bear witness to Black U Street’s community elders and stakeholders.
Grab your tickets to A Strange Loop and check out the exhibit before the show!

Are you between the ages of 14 and 18 and interested in art and activism? Do you know someone who is?
Then you should know about Strathmore and Woolly
Mammoth's new Arts and Social Justice Fellowship!
This powerful program for youth ages 14-18 is part of Strathmore and Woolly’s co-presentation of Octavia E. Butler’s Parable of the Sower by Toshi Reagon and Bernice Johnson Reagon, based on the Parable novels by Octavia Butler. The fellowship centers youth leadership, young people’s vision of the future, and building community in the face of crisis—key themes in both the novels and the stage version.
There is no cost to participate, and students will be provided a stipend for projects.
