Black Benatar vs. the Cistem is a genre-defying solo performance by Beatrice L. Thomas, blending drag, puppetry, and multimedia into an absurd courtroom dramedy that puts the reproductive system on trial. Inside the body, organs testify, doctors are cross-examined, and the healthcare system is forced to answer for what it has missed and misunderstood. At the center is one uterus’s relentless quest for pregnancy. Sharp, surreal, and revealing, the work exposes gaps in care while celebrating resilience and self-advocacy. When a drag queen tries to get pregnant, everybody gets dragged.

VISION

Amazing Theatre believes that drama is a powerful medium for teaching and learning about the history and cultural nuances that are the foundation of Black/African Americans. Therefore, the vision of the Amazing Theatre Company is to sustain the tradition of theater in the Black/African American community by presenting culturally relevant, life-inspiring, and historical events. 

MISSION

The Theatre's mission is to create meaningful theatrical productions to enlighten, educate, and entertain the community about the history and culture of Black, indigenous, people of color (BIPOC), while at the same time embracing the importance of inclusion and diversity. To ensure that our productions tell not only the BIPOC story, we partner with other ethnic groups to bring together a world view.  With this ideology the Amazing Theatre contributes to community theater by:

1. supporting, educating, training, and developing artists.
2. inspiring, producing, and assisting new playwrights.
3. fostering relationships in the community to increase diverse audience participation.
4. producing historical and socially relevant Black/African American plays.
