The Greene Card Official page for THE GREENE CARD: THE UNBELIEVABLE, YET COMPLETELY TRUE, STORY OF A BROWN B

Sevan must escape the ravages of the Gulf War for a chance at the American dream. Armed with a box of bootleg cassettes and his obsession with all things West, this brown boy stumbles on his journey to become his true self: a white American. He’s already got a New Kids on the block T-shirt - how hard can it be? From the raucous parlors of African-American Florida to the uptight racist salons of wh

ite New York City, Sevan learns that it takes more than an encyclopedic knowledge of The Little Mermaid to be part of their world. Sevan Greene performs his story supported by a full band and ‘black-up’ singers. Drawn from the experience of his own harrowing reality, The Greene Card asks why it’s easier to survive warfare, than to live as an immigrant. The Greene Card is not just an autobiographical show with pop/musical theatre/gospel music. It is an honest exploration of contemporary race and immigration issues.

Reactions to The Greene Card: The Unbelievable, Yet Completely True, Story of a Brown Boy in a White World

22/09/2014

'In short: The Greene Card was one of the best pieces of theatre I have seen in a long while. It is truly deserving of a transfer to a bigger venue, so that the talent involved, and the issues discussed can move as many people as possible, not only in terms of emotional reaction, but also in the desire to change the face of heteronormative theatre that is all too familiar and tired.'
