getting the bitching started

Hey I'm trying to become new age with this Internet blogging. On this site we are open to discussions about the nature and health of the so-called theatrical thing called: Black Theater. I would like to put a question out there for any of you who happen upon this website: what is the health of black theater today? Is it on life-support systems? Where does it go now that The August Of the Wilson has passed on?

Can someone define what "progressive" new playwrights, theaters, or playwrights are out there?
