  Features a Makers Market
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\nMon 11/3 @ 6PM\nCleveland-based spoken word artist/filmma
 ker Chris Webb’s new play\, The End of Black Excellence\, revolves ar
 ound man who is the first Black person born without the highly touted “
 Black excellence.” “In his attempt to prove this theory wrong\, he pu
 ts on an (ever-failing) solo show to prove his worth\, value\, and connect
 ion with the elusive excellence that he craves\,” the synopsis tells us.

 nal spoken-word pieces around the world\, created documentaries about marg
 inalized communities\, won awards for his advertising work. In The End of
  Black Excellence\, we’re told “Chris merges all of his practices into
  a piece that reflects on survival\, self-acceptance\, and the power of me
 ntorship in life’s most critical moments.”\nThe play is currently onst
 age at Cleveland Public Theatre’s James Levin Theatre\, Webb will be per
 forming the central role\, with noted local theater director/visual artist
 /writer Jimmie Woody directing.\nAnd it’s got a special rare Monday perf
 ormer on November 3 that includes a pre-show pop-up market (6-7pm) featuri
 ng local makers and businesses offering coffee\, spices\, cosmetics and vi
 ntage garments. It is also open for a half hour after the show.\nGo here
