Hattiloo is a 501(c)3 mission non-profit organization. Its mission is "to develop a Black theatre that is accessible to, relevant to, and reflective of a multicultural community." It produces shows that depict Black life and that transcend their entertainment value by giving audiences an authentic, cultural experience Its program The Self-Identity Theatre Camp helps Black youth acquire tools to care for their emotional selves in inequitable and discriminatorysituations.
As the largest Black theatre in the Mid-South andoneofafewfree-standingBlacktheatresin the country, Hattiloo is a hub for national Black theatre training and convening, and our youth programssharethisfocus.
As a theatre producer and the founder of Hattiloo Theatre, I’ve always been drawn to stories that resonate with the Black experience. Growing up in Brooklyn, I was exposed to a vibrant arts scene, fostering a diverse musical taste that would later inform my artistic choices. From a young age, my aunt introduced me to the world of jazz, sneaking me into clubs to experience the raw energy and improvisational brilliance of bebop. This early sclsel exposure to diverse musical styles has shaped my understanding of the power of music to move and inspire.
I'm a notoriously picky theatregoer I'm often disappointed by the lack of originality and depth in mainstream theatre, particularly in the realm of musicals. American musical theatre, with its formulaic structure and often generic scores, rarely excites me. I'm more drawn to productions that challenge conventions, push boundaries, and offer a fresh perspective.
During my time at Morehouse College in Atlanta, a city more renowned for its film industry than its theatre scene, I eagerly sought out opportunities to experience live theatre. It was in this context that I attended a production of "The Boy Who Kissed the Sky," a play that chronicles the early life of Jimi Hendrix.
I remember sitting in that Atlanta theater, the stage bathed in a soft, purple glow. While the production was enjoyable, it felt like a missed opportunity. The play, originally conceived as a piece for young audiences, had the potential for a deeper, more mature exploration of Hendrix's life. My professor, a close friend and the spouse of an Alliance Theatre artistic director, shared my sentiment. We discussed the play's strengths and weaknesses, identifying moments that could be further developed to reveal the complexity of Hendrix's character and the power of his music.
This conversation sparked a flame within me. I was eager to dive deeper into Hendrix's story and bring it to life in a way that would truly honor his legacy. My enthusiasm was further fueled by my directing professor, who shared my perspective on the play's potential Her insights into character development, staging, and the power of music resonated with me deeply. I was so impressed by her knowledge and passion that I knew I wanted her to direct our production of "The Boy Who Kissed the Sky."
Hattiloo is the perfect venue to bring Hendrix's story to life. As Memphis' only Black theatre in a predominantly Black city, we are committed to producing works that reflect the Black experience and challenge societal norms. Hendrix’s journey, marked by rebellion, artistic innovation, and a relentless pursuit of authenticity, aligns perfectly with Hattiloo's mission. By showcasing the life of a Black musical genius, we hope to inspire a new generation of artists and audiences.
Through productions like "The Boy Who Kissed the Sky," Hattiloo aims to expand the narrative of Black artistry. While Hendrix is a prominent figure, there are countless other Black musicians who have made significant contributions to the world of music. By celebrating the lives and work of these artists, we can challenge stereotypes and broaden our understanding of Black culture.
I'm excited to share this production with you. I believe it will not only entertain but also inspire, challenging us to think critically about the power of art and the importance of individuality. As we delve into Hendrix's story, we'll witness the birth of a musical genius and explore the complexities of his personal journey. From his early days in Seattle to his meteoric rise to fame, we'll see the struggles, triumphs, and the raw talent that made him one of the greatest guitarists of all time. I can't wait to see how our production resonates with our audience and how it contributes to the legacy of this iconic artist.

Set in the heart of Seattle’s Central District to the rhythms that shaped a generation, THE BOY WHO KISSED THE SKY, is inspired by the early life and influences of Seattle native and musical icon Jimi Hendrix. The early era of rock ‘n roll music sets the stage as a young Black boy conjures his creativity as a budding guitarist. Guided by the spirit of music itself, the boy learns to find harmony inside the challenging noises of his life. Told with vibrant music and daring imagination, this play inspires us to dream big when it matters most.
