Sweet Chariot

SWEET CHARIOT

Shiva Theater January 10 & January 15, 2023 75 Minutes

SWEET CHARIOT
Created by Eric Lockley
Directed by Shariffa Ali 
Presented in collaboration with The Movement Theatre Company

When the prospect of a far-off place called Home seems more appealing than the terrors of Earth, Marcus, a down and out teacher, launches himself on a journey across planets and centuries. Marcus risks everything, and a dysfunctional space crew will stop at nothing to discover Home. But as they encounter mysterious alien figures, Afro-Bots, and a very uncertain future, Home may not be all that they expected. SWEET CHARIOT is an Afro-futuristic exploration of the fine line between escapism and unshakeable resilience, posing the question: is true liberation only possible for Black people beyond Earth?
