"This is a wildly funny, agonizingly heart-wrenching presentation...a jewel of a show." - Pat Craig, Contra Costa Times
"Impeccable" - Oakland Tribune
Houses are filling up for Brian Copeland's NOT A GENUINE BLACK MAN and everyone is loving this show. Jerry Friedman of KGO loved it and gave it a great radio review. The city proclaimed opening night on April 17 "Brian Copeland Day." We hope you come on down and see the remarkable show.
Brian Copeland's first solo show, NOT A GENUINE BLACK MAN, reveals a little-known chapter of Bay Area history. In 1971, San Leandro was named one of the most racist suburbs in America. Congressional hearings were held. The next year, the then eight-year-old Brian Copeland and his African-American family moved to San Leandro. In a monologue that's both funny and poignant, Brian explores how surroundings make us who we are.
Brian's current gig, THE BRIAN COPELAND SHOW on San Francisco ABC radio affiliate KGO, is the most listened to program in its time slot.
