Description

Fat Ham is a new drama by Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright James Ijames, reimagining Shakespeare's masterpiece as a delectable comic tragedy.

When the ghost of his father appears in their backyard, demanding that Juicy avenge his murder, it feels like a familiar story. But what sets this tale apart is Juicy himself - a sensitive and self-aware young Black man trying to break the cycles of trauma and violence in service of his own liberation.

From an uproarious family barbecue emerges a compelling examination of love, loss, pain, and joy, as Juicy navigates the complexities of identity and family dynamics.
