Black Friends

The Classical Theatre of Harlem

Sep 28, 2026

Future Classics returns Monday, September 28 at 7:00 p.m. at the Harlem School of the Arts with a free reading of BLACK FRIENDS, a new comedy by playwright and veteran Broadway casting director Erica Jensen. It's 2022, and everyone suddenly has a Black friend - except Jessica. Raised by white parents, surrounded by white people, and painfully aware that she is the only Black person in her own life, Jessica decides to fix her identity crisis. She rents a Black friend. But - can belonging be bought?
