Choir Boy at Trustus Theatre

A circular shape of blue smoke against a black background.

The Charles R. Drew Prep School for Boys is dedicated to the creation of strong, ethical black men. Pharus wants nothing more than to take his rightful place as leader of the school’s legendary gospel choir. Can he find his way inside the hallowed halls of this institution if he sings in his own key?

Trustus Theatre’s Season 41 opener, Choir Boy, by Tarell Alvin McCraney, runs September 26 through October 18, 2025 on the Thigpen Mainstage! Performances are Thursday through Sunday (except Sunday Sept. 28). Directed by Terrance Henderson.
