The Tiny Banger
by Trinity Street Players

Dec. 07 - Dec. 20, 2018
Thursdays-Sundays

The Tiny Banger is a play about a homeless family trying to survive in an increasingly hostile city. It uses Charlie Chaplin’s Tramp archetype and film aesthetic within a contemporary setting to trouble pervasive perceptions about homelessness and illuminate how these biases lead to the criminalization measures that keep many trapped in cycles of homelessness and incarceration. We follow Dope Fiend, Jailbird, and their son Tiny Banger in their efforts to stay together. As the play goes on, the silent film world strips away, and we encounter the messy, complex world in which the family actually lives.

Directed by Adam Sussman, THE TINY BANGER stars Ray Roberts, Alaithia Velez, Sean Moran, Juliet Embry, Elizabeth Mason, Khali McDuff-Sykes, Amani J K Alexander, and Brandon Pegram.
