It is a play about race in America, but it is also a play about who gets to make art, who gets to play Shakespeare, about the qualitative decline of the American theatre, about actors and acting, and about the nature of unadulterated love. It is an often funny, often heartbreaking examination of the pall of privileged perspective that is ultimately so injurious to us all.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOriginally written in 2012, \u003ci\u003eAmerican Moor\u003c\/i\u003ehas been seen across America, including a successful run off-Broadway in 2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Cobb, Keith Hamilton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/19\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350165304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 64\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.60h x 4.90w x 0.30d","brand":"Keith Hamilton Cobb","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32748718817355,"sku":"9781350165304","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0021\/1697\/6715\/products\/img_e38a4dda-8828-4eba-aa79-6eab75b93d4e.jpg?v=1597772401","url":"https:\/\/blackbookstore.com\/products\/american-moor-9781350165304","provider":"Black Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
