"Dutchman" is a one-act play that dramatizes an encounter between a middle class African
American man and a Bohemian white woman as an absurdist ritual on the New York City subway.
The BGSU Office of Multicultural Affairs has been instrumental in using this production as a learning
tool to incorporate a shared understanding of diversity and inclusion among its cast and crew.
Because of the violent nature of the show, both BGSU Theatre and OMA are working with the BGSU Counseling
Center for on-site services to audience members following each performance. BGSU College of Arts and
Sciences Associate Dean and Professor of Theatre, Marcus Sherrell, will also lead a post-show discussion
following each performance.
