*******************************************
The Colored Museum is a play by the African American dramatist George C. Wolfe. It features eleven vignettes that satirize elements of African American culture:
Git on Board
Cookin' with Aunt Ethel
The Photo Session
Soldier with a Secret
The Gospel According to Miss Roj
The Hairpiece
The Last Mama-on-the-Couch Play
Symbiosis
Lala's Opening
Permutations
The Party
The beginning takes place on an airplane which is ever so exactly traveling through time. The airplane visits different museum exhibits, each which displays African-American culture and history from the time they were brought to America as slaves all the way through nearly recent times. Each exhibit displays a different event or lifestyle in different parts of the country in different eras.
The Colored Museum examines the honor and desire of African-American people to escape centuries of suffering that have been a continuous source of baggage.
